CTC: An Evidence-Based System
CTC empowers communities to use prevention science to make real change. We use local data to identify what our young people are dealing with, and put programs and activities in place to address them. A scientific trial demonstrated that young people from communities using the CTC system were 25% to 37% less likely to have health and behavior problems than those from control communities.
Studies also show that $1 invested into the CTC system = $11.14 savings to the community via lower criminal justice system, crime victim, and health care costs, and increased earnings and tax revenues.
