Prevention Institute, with funding from the Blue Shield of California Foundation, has launched Safety Through Connection, a new program to catalyze community-based approaches that can help prevent domestic violence.
In her article about the Movember Foundation's annual campaign to raise awareness for men's health issues, Anna Papachristos highlights PI and the Making Connections initiative: "The Movember Foundation partnered with the Prevention Institute to fund the Making Connections program, which impacts 14 different communities across the U.S. in a variety of ways. The initiative emphasizes community-led programs that underscore the importance of mental health and social connections, and their link with community well-being. While each site has designed and implemented very different projects, all are focused on building partnerships and implementing preventive, community-based strategies designed to improve the mental health and well-being of men and boys across the country."
