What differentiates CTC from other community mobilization efforts?
Years of research by social scientists and public health experts have demonstrated how to most effectively coordinate prevention efforts. CTC's strategy for involving key leaders to ensure top-down support as well as its use of accurate data in identifying and addressing priority risk and protective factors (see Communities That Care Youth Survey) make it the most comprehensive prevention planning system available.
