Overview

Mission

The Coalition operates evidence-based programs to prevent the onset of youth substance use by building protective factors and educating youth, parents, community leaders and local organizations on key risk factors. Activities are implemented in school and community settings, targeting youth to minimize the risk of developing substance use disorders.

Operating model

Revenue model
Grant-funded. 100% of the money available for current operations came from government grants.
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

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
