Communities That Care (CTC) is a five step comprehensive
prevention approach that provides research-based tools to help communities identify and address risk and protective factors associated with substance abuse, delinquency, teen pregnancy, school dropout and violence.
|
This approach was developed by researchers at the University of Washington and is based on over 20 years of rigorous national research from a variety of fields (sociology, psychology, education, public health, criminology, medicine, and organizational development).
CTC includes all sectors of the community (families, schools, health care, law enforcement, business, etc.) and takes a proactive data driven approach to identify and prioritize areas needing intervention while Being designed so each community develops its own unique profile and action plan specific to their local needs. |
