3) fund a community outreach and awareness campaign to spur additional local support for CY's programs;
4) expand prevention projects that have proven effective in reducing substance use; 5) strengthen collaboration among community groups and agencies to promote "no-use" norms and to ensure sustainability of prevention efforts;
6) support the student-led See Why Improv Troupe to educate business leaders and community members about substance use; and 7) work with the Media Matters subcommittee to promote no-use messages and media literacy throughout Chittenden South.
