Overview
Mission
Be the Change 406 Coalition is a youth-led substance prevention organization dedicated to creating a safe and healthy Beaverhead County. Since 2018 weve been empowering young people to make positive choices through evidence-based education community advocacy and substance-free activities.
What it reported doing in 2024
DFC Grant - 75% of Beaverhead County teens havent used alcohol in the past 30 days 82% havent used e-cigarettes and 92% havent used marijuana. Most of our teens are making healthy choices and were here to support them every step of the way. Through monthly game nights policy advocacy educational workshops and youth leadership development were proving that prevention works when communities come together.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.
The verdict
STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
