Join the conversation with Mike Tobias as he discusses the power of community members and coalitions in promoting healthier communities through advocacy. Advocacy can happen at all levels, "raise your radar," and get involved in your community.

Join the conversation with Joel Hoepfner, long-time trainer and supporter of Michigan substance misuse prevention community groups and Ruth Schwendinger, program coordinator with Michigan's Prevention Network. In this episode, we talk about building systems on the Strategic Planning Framework which allows us to identify a more comprehensive and long-term approach to substance misuse prevention. In a grassroots approach, we are all living in a shared environment and are impacted by everything within the community. We are all impacted by this and coalitions can help individuals see how they are affected, and empower them to address community conditions. Sustainability is not about funds, it is about people.

Joel Hoepfner discusses the importance of Communication Planning for coalitions and shares a glimpse of what groundwork is necessary for a successful social media marketing campaign.
