Narrative

The mission of SSTAR Prevention’s BOLDER (Building our Lives Determined Empowered and Resilient) Coalition is to focus on enhancing protective factors. We help build better communities, support families, and promote health and wellness initiatives. We specifically address substance use prevention and positive youth development from ages birth to eighteen.

The vision of BOLDER is to create healthier communities for the youth and families of Fall River, Taunton, and nearby cities and towns. BOLDER aims to foster inclusivity and diversity by incorporating the eight *Prevention Principles into youth substance use prevention initiatives. BOLDER empowers people from a wide variety of community sectors to adopt best practices. They can use data informed strategies to implement and evaluate programming, policy, and practice change.
