Praise

In this day of global economic challenge and tight budgets everywhere, effective low-cost population-level prevention strategies are needed more than ever. That's exactly what the prevention "kernels" of the Simple Gifts Initiative are: evidence-based strategies that are research-proven, affordable, and applicable broadly in all types of community. I've seen these kernels in action here in Kansas. They are impeccably researched, easy to understand, and straightforward to deploy, yet when applied at scale they can bring about startling population-level improvement in the health and well being of youth and communities.
