What We Do
Concrete Resource Coalition is working to improve school performance, reduce youth delinquency, and address mental health through implementation of appropriate research-based substance use prevention strategies. Current strategies include:
In addition, the Concrete Resource Coalition coordinates professional development trainings and community education events, as well as local environmental and media strategies that support our mission. We measure outcomes of our programs and strategies with Healthy Youth Survey results, community survey results, and data from pre and post-tests from participants in our youth and family programs. These results are shared at Coalition meetings and our annual key leader event to help guide decision-making and celebrate. Please visit our Facebook page for more information on our strategies, programs, and upcoming events.
About the Concrete Resource Coalition
“I believe in supporting our students, families and community by sharing the abundance of resources available in Skagit County. Until becoming a member of the Concrete Resource Coalition, I had no idea that so many organizations had so much to offer and so many caring people that look out for the hurt, those in need, and provide free education programs!!! My real education began when I joined the CRC board.”
“Serving on the Concrete Resource Coalition for the past couple years has been a great way for me to connect with the local community. The networking done through their meetings has been critical in helping me better serve Concrete youth and families.”
“I serve on the Coalition because I believe in collaboration. Coalition members keep me in the loop regarding the various components of our Upper Valley community, and I return the favor from the Town of Concrete’s point of view.”
“The participants of our Coalition put a lot of time and energy into improving the lives of our children. As representative of our local community radio station KSVU 90.1 FM, I am on board to promote the members and their programs.”
“As a teacher at Concrete High School, it is my pleasure to lend proactive support to the Concrete Resource Coalition. I recognize the positive impacts in supporting the goals set forth by the community members. This dedicated group helps provide all students with education and enrichment activities that enhance and reinforce health concepts and life skills. I encourage anyone that feels they can contribute to the uplifting work of the CRC to join our efforts!”
“Community Action of Skagit County participates in the Concrete Resource Coalition work to support youth on a path to success. We share a common goal of helping people and changing lives by promoting a strong sense of self, and involvement at school and in the community.”
