Building a nurturing and supportive environment in which healthy families can pursue long-term goals is critical to sustainable family development. Essential components for family success include access to affordable housing, strong neighborhood institutions, safe streets, supportive social networks, and an environment that promotes community and strengthens bonds among families.
As part to of the effort to meet these needs, Catholic Charities of Idaho works in collaboration with many other community organizations.
This ensures that the needs of Idahoans and larger societal issues demand the attention and efforts of all members of the community: business and faith leaders, public officials, social service providers, and all people of good will. While recognizing the uniqueness and valuable contributions of individual organizations, CCI recognizes the power of positive change that can happen when communities unite around social issues.

Our local chapter has gone into the middle and high schools and administered the Pride Survey which is an anonymous survey that was given to see what the percentage of drug and alcohol use are in our local schools. We gave the results to the principals for their information and we will be working with the schools to see what would be the best course to address the current drug and alcohol problems we have with our youth. We have participated with Clifton Idaho's town meeting and will work more with their schools next year. Now that we know the percentage of the youth that use alcohol and drugs we are going to work with the schools and community and law enforcements to try and tackle the problem.

2) Skills (social, self-control, and coping skills); and
3) Decision-making (i.e., how to make decisions that lead to health-promoting behaviors).

BYDC has always included youth and has simultaneously had a youth council (BYC) to aid the efforts of the coalition and to help guide coalition members in the best way to approach youth issues.

Our goal is to work together to better serve the needs of the youth and families that we jointly serve within the county. We strive to communicate and provide opportunities for the coalitions and also the community regarding training on prevention issues and programs related to tobacco, alcohol, and other drugs of abuse. Our hope is to education RACE members and the adults/youth of the county about the harmful and costly direct and indirect effects of drug abuse.
We meet on a regular basis at prescheduled locations which are usually in a county, state, or school rooms. Meeting times are set based on group needs and can change based on those needs.
