Your generous gift will help us fund our mission to help those in need. Together, we can make a difference.
Our vision is to provide a community in which all area youth feel safe and connected;
a community in which youth are empowered to be healthy, resilient, and compassionate members of society;
and a community in which young people positively contribute and impact future generations.
Our mission is to promote healthy lifestyles and choices throughout our communities to benefit our youth and their families. We do this by focusing on adolescent substance use including alcohol, tobacco products, marijuana and prescription drug use by reducing youth and community risk factors, and building protective factors.
Communities That Care of Marinette and Menominee Counties (CTC) has been awarded a $125,000
grant from the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) DFC Support Program which is part of
the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC). This grant will be available to CTC for five years, totaling $625,000. At that time,
CTC will be eligible to extend the grant for an additional five years, making the total grand award
$1,250,000.
With these funds, CTC will address underage alcohol and tobacco product use in both Marinette and
Menominee Counties. The work plan will include projects that will impact both youth and adults as
well as address environmental and policy change around these two substances. Our organization
currently has over 40 active members who volunteer to sit on various work groups around preventing
youth problem behaviors such as substance use.
