ABOUT US

Created in 1989, The Governor's Prevention Partnership is a not-for-profit partnership between state government and business leaders with a mission to keep Connecticut's youth safe, successful and drug-free.  Co-chaired by Governor M. Jodi Rell, The Partnership provides leadership and services to help schools, communities, youth organizations, colleges and businesses create and sustain quality programs in these core areas:
  • Increasing the number of youth who have the caring support of a mentor
  • Helping local communities build coalitions and programs to address underage drinking
  • Helping schools develop and implement effective drug and violence prevention programming including Student Assistance Programs, bullying, conflict resolution and peer mediation programs
  • Helping colleges/universities address issues and behavior related to alcohol abuse
  • Delivering anti-drug messages through the media
  • Giving parents the skills they need to protect their children against drugs and other problems

The Governor's Prevention Partnership works in collaboration with local, regional and statewide providers to maximize youth development programming without duplicating services.  The Partnership's programs affect children in virtually every community in the state.
