// About Strategies TA

Support That Moves You Forward

If your organization or network is working to strengthen families and build thriving communities, you don’t have to do it alone. Strategies TA is here to walk beside you.

We are a state-funded, non-profit Technical Assistance program that helps nonprofits, prevention collaboratives, and coalitions bring their vision for prevention to life. With deep experience in community engagement, systems change, and equity-driven practice, we offer tailored support to meet you where you are—and help you grow from there.

We don’t drop in with a one-size-fits-all solution. Instead, we co-create strategies with you—honoring your organization and community’s wisdom, helping you navigate complexity with confidence.

With decades of combined experience, statewide reach, and a commitment to equity and prevention, Strategies TA is more than technical assistance—we’re a thought partner, a capacity-builder, and a champion for your success.
