Ohio Adult Allies is a network of adults who are committed to facilitating and advancing the work of youth-led programs. Holly works with the <a href=\"https:\/\/ohioadultallies.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Ohio Adult Allies<\/strong><\/a> initiative to educate adults as they engage youth in evidence-based prevention strategies with local coalitions. In Ohio, Adult Allies work alongside young people and guide them through a planning process that uses evidence-based strategies to create community-level change and build healthier communities.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout her 30-year career, Holly has engaged youth-led, adult-guided community coalitions from multiple viewpoints. \u201cI actually started with youth-led prevention before I even knew it was a thing. As a high school student in the late 80s, early 90s, I was involved with a program at my high school called peer counseling.\u201d As part of the program, Holly developed the passion for community prevention and became an advocate from a young age. \u201cI really believe people don\u2019t choose this work; it chooses you. So, as I progressed with my career I always went in with a curious mindset and eventually it clicked that I had been doing youth-led prevention this whole time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Holly sees firsthand the needs and potential of prevention coalitions in the state. \u201cWe provide support to communities for using data to identify the substance misuse issues that are most pressing for their communities. What I aim to do is to unlock the potential that communities already have by providing training, technical assistance, and evaluation support within the confines of SAMHSA\u2019s Strategic Prevention Framework.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ohio Adult Allies utilizes the <a href=\"https:\/\/ohioadultallies.com\/2023\/10\/youth-empowerment-conceptual-framework\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Youth Empowerment Conceptual Framework (YECF)<\/strong><\/a> to provide an evidence-based structure for their work. The YECF provides coalitions an in-depth explanation of the ecological context, adult role, and group structure of youth-led programs. It also helps adult allies embrace and further understand the conceptual framework of youth-led, adult-guided.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne person doesn\u2019t have a magic wand to make change. It\u2019s folks working together. That\u2019s why we really like the YECF as a framework because you look through all the different elements and you see how to structure a program and it is an evaluation tool at its core.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Serving over 84 communities in Ohio means a lot of diverse and unique situations for the organization to pivot around. \u201cOne thing we are especially sensitive to is the idea of \u2018adultism\u2019 where the adults show up and say, \u2018I\u2019m the adult and this is what goes.\u2019 It doesn\u2019t provide a healthy environment for a youth-led, adult-guided organization at all. So, part of our trainings is helping adults identify and avoid that mindset.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ohio Adult Allies utilizes learning collaboratives dispersed throughout Ohio to help expand youth-led prevention across the state. In addition to five collaboratives that are centered around geographic regions, there are three collaboratives designed build affinity with cultural groups. Right now, the organization fields three affinity-based learning cooperatives: one in Appalachia, one for serving BIPOC youth, and one for Northern Ohio\u2019s growing Hispanic population.<\/p>\n<p>Sharing the successes and methods of Ohio Adult Allies is something that is always on Holly\u2019s mind. Recently, Holly co-authored with her colleagues a chapter in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/core\/books\/cambridge-handbook-of-community-empowerment\/7C7E42EF75EB413B1DC01CC5E32064E8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>The Cambridge Handbook of Community Empowerment<\/strong><\/a>, detailing the work that Ohio Adult Allies has done in the state. \u201cEstablishing a literature base is important because that\u2019s how other people can find the work and find value in the work. But that\u2019s not the way a lot of practitioners will access the work, so you have to meet people where they\u2019re at, segment your audience, and really work hard to provide teaching to everybody where they\u2019re at.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Holly ended the interview recounting what she\u2019s learned over her career. \u201cThis work is important and intentional, but it has to be funded. Both federally and at the state level, there has to be investment to move it forward. This work brings together a huge cross-section of passion from across the state; from government partnerships to the education sector to prevention providers to community nonprofits. It takes all of us ensure that young people have opportunities to meaningfully contribute to prevention.\u201d<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Ohio,
