We’re pleased to be kicking off the 2015-2016 Injury-Free NC Academy in partnership with the Division of Public Health. This year’s theme is “Enhancing North Carolina’s Capacity to Prevent Suicide,” and we are about to get underway for our opening sessions in Chapel Hill on October 6th and 7th!
This year, ten teams from across the state will participate in the Academy to develop key skills in coalition building, community programming, logic model building, and funding.
With a total of ten teams, this is our largest year for the Academy ever, and the twenty-two counties represented by our teams reach across the state! Here are all the counties:
- Alexander
- Alleghany
- Ashe
- Avery
- Caldwell
- Carteret
- Cherokee
- Clay
- Cumberland
- Graham
- Haywood
- Jackson
- Macon
- McDowell
- Onslow
- Orange
- Robeson
- Surry

As the academy continues on through the year, we’ll post updates and spotlights on individual teams and efforts, so stay tuned!
