CFNLP Networks and Connections

Partnerships

The CFNLP works diligently with its identified partners:

California Youth Council – The role of the California Youth Council (CYC), with over 30 members including alumni, is threefold: 1) to plan and facilitate the annual Teenwork Training Institute, 2) to provide training to adult audiences across California on creating effective partnerships with youth, and 3) to create linkages between their CYC work and their local counties.

Youth Leadership Institute – Helping train Friday Night live counties, the Youth Leadership Institute (YLI) is a community based institute, which joins with young people to build communities which respect, honor, and support youth. Recognized as national models of youth-adult partnerships, YLI programs use strategies ranging from community organizing to youth philanthropy, youth in governance, and public policy advocacy. www.yli.org.

California Friday Night Live Collaborative – The California Friday Night Live Collaborative (CFNLC) is the body of County Friday Night Live Partnership program coordinators in California making a coordinated commitment to the mission and principles of Friday Night Live. The FNL system is the Collaborative. The CFNLC officers as such, address areas of common concern, as well as provide support for the needs of program coordinators and staff.

Working Relationships

California Prevention Collaborative – The CPC is an association of organizations, agencies, and volunteers partnering with one another to effectively advance primary prevention work around alcohol, tobacco and other drug problems in California communities. While the groups that make up the CPC are unique, they each are dedicated to the unified goals and values that support prevention. The 2004 California Prevention Summit in Riverside will be a unique opportunity for all the CPC partners to share the most recent scientific and research based ATOD (alcohol, tobacco, and other drug) prevention strategies, as well as dialogue CPC's vision and goals for the new year CPC partners meet regularly to address issues of interest and importance, and move prevention efforts forward in California.
