Attorney General Phil Weiser announced that the Colorado Department of Law is awarding $5 million in grants to nine school districts and community organizations to strengthen school-community partnerships and promote youth wellbeing across the state.

“Youth in Colorado and across the nation are facing a crisis of connection, leading to challenges with mental health and risky behaviors like increased vaping. This funding supports schools and community partners who are developing meaningful, proactive solutions that build strong relationships, empower youth, and promote lifelong wellbeing.” – AG Weiser
