Kearns aims to reverse troubling trends affecting its teens


The Kearns Community Coalition in Utah is a collective community effort that aims to "help adults improve their parenting skills, help teens understand the harmful effects of substance use, and increase opportunities to connect youths to their schools and communities." Taking a data-driven approach to assessing community problems, the cross-sector team that forms the coalition implements evidence-based programs that address the gap between residents and resources.
