COMMA Projects serves as the community education and special projects arm of Better Tomorrow in close partnership with Advocates of Routt County.
Offering a suite of harm-reduction programs designed to prevent sexual, domestic, and workplace abuses, COMMA reaches middle and high schools, colleges, nightlife venues, the business community and social groups.
Special projects include anything from keynote addresses and online awareness campaigns to event management and collaborative community initiatives.
In the realm of sexual and domestic violence advocacy, every agency is under-funded to the point that services are limited to exclusively responding to violence. There are very few funding sources available for programs focused on preventing the harm in the first place.
Your support allows COMMA to fill an urgent need for "primary prevention" education in our community and beyond!
