Award Summary:

Funds are being used by the Salvation Army Boys & Girls Clubs of Charleston and St. Albans to implement the SMART Moves program, an evidence-based prevention initiative. The program builds youth resilience by strengthening social-emotional skills such as problem-solving, conflict resolution, and confidence while fostering a sense of belonging. By providing a safe, supportive environment, the initiative helps protect vulnerable youth from substance use and promotes healthy, substance-free futures.
