The Coalition is proud to announce that it has been awarded the state’s Mental Health Promotion Project grant, providing $79,978 in funding from January 2026 through June 2027. This grant will strengthen local prevention efforts by supporting several evidence-based programs, including Primary Project, Youth Mental Health First Aid for Indigenous Peoples and Tribal Communities, Adult Mental Health First Aid for Rural Communities, teen Mental Health First Aid for 10th graders, and QPR (Question, Persuade, Refer) training for students, staff, and community members. Together, these initiatives will help build a stronger foundation of mental wellness, awareness, and early intervention across our schools and community.
