Above is a listing of the current programs we have discussed and planned for this coming fiscal year. All
of them have not been voted on for this coming year but, have been in the past.
This year the Madison Chatham Coalition is doing surveys this year in the high schools. They are asking
for monetary help with these surveys. This will allow us to not only have access to the data but have
local data when it comes time to reapply for the GCADA 5- year grant. The survey is the community that
cares survey, it includes 5 questions that must be on it from the coalition’s standpoint. The rest of the
questions from my understanding, are geared toward mental health and wellness. By having access to
this data it will allow us to have a closer look at how Madison schools have changed from 2016 to 2018.
We will be able to use this data to back up our programming and truly hit the priority areas.
Other items that we need to make priorities this year are finding a chair and having a secretary. Please
let me know if anyone know of anyone interested in these positions. I have also reached out to
Detective Ken Shannon to come and speak with us to give us information about what is happening in
Madison.
Overall, as an alliance we had a very successful year.
o Pool scholarships
o Yoga/mindfulness class
o Brown bag event
o Sticker shock
o Bullying screening
o Arrive Alive at Bottle Hill Day
o Graduation Gala
o Farmer’s markets

I wanted to thank everyone on the alliance and everyone who helped us achieve as much success as we
have this year. I look forward to continued growth for MAASA and bringing awareness and prevention to
Madison.
Some key notes for next year:

Find a secretary willing to take notes
Increase our Evidence based programming Planning
