Planet Improv is proud to have been selected to be part of ReCAST Mecklenburg’s cohort in their Technical Assistance (TA) Hub Pilot Program. The work of ReCAST and Charlote Violence Prevention Coalition (CVPC) is grounded in a public health approach to address critical issues in communities. The impact of violence on youth manifests in many ways that can affect individuals over their lifetime. Therefore, a variety of strategies and stakeholders are necessary to provide a range of approaches to youth violence prevention. The CDC VetoViolence approach adopted by ReCAST is a way to engage community and strengthen collaboration around messaging and networking. The CVPC is working across stakeholder groups to address the impact of violence and collaborate around common goals. Planet Improv will be critical to developing community-level solutions and leading community-led initiatives.
