The By-Laws are complete! The Town Attorney, Mayor and Coalition Co-Chairs, Winnie Etienne and Dr. Dudley Orr signed the By-Laws on Monday, June 8, 2015. For complete by-laws, click here.
The Coalition has a new name keeping three of our key words, Stratford, Partnership and Youth.
The new Coalition name is:
Stratford Partnership for Youth and Families
It does not lock us in to only substance abuse prevention and allows us to address future related youth and family topics. In addition, it has some resemblance to our former name to help with the transition.
The Coalition will begin branding by tweaking the logo below, created by CCSU students, previously used by the Partnerships For Success initiative.
Following the recommendation from the Logistics Committee, Coalition meetings will be held on the second Wednesday of the month from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m.
Many Town and Board of Education meetings and holidays fall on Mondays, which creates scheduling difficulty. The meeting time change is in response to feedback from members to start earlier and reduce the meeting time.
New schedule will be sent and posted at the end of June.
Stratford Youth and Family Advisory Board's mission is to mobilize youth and community partners to create a safe, healthy and drug-free environment where youth and families thrive.
