CTC Training

On December 2, 2003, the first official training of the Communities That Care® curriculum was presented in the fellowship hall at the Waverly Nazarene Church. With 36 members of the community in attendance, and the session led by David Shavel, trainer with Channing Bete, a new era began in Humphreys County.

The participants were shown an overview of how risk and protective factors are used to develop initiatives and gauge the effects of those programs implemented in communities. The training led to the development of six Action Teams who will be working on specific target areas that were defined during the training. This Community Board is open to anyone desiring to improve the lifestyles of the residents of Humphreys County.
