March 2012

• We Can! has a new approach for 2012! We have assigned a member of our community site assistance team to every site across the
  country—including yours! Our goal is to help every site sustain, or grow, a successful We Can! program. Whether you need help with getting started, training your staff or volunteers, or just brainstorming some fresh ideas, your regional liaison is just an e-mail or phone call away.
• Community Site Awards: Eighteen community sites received an award for 2012 to help them implement We Can!'s parent and youth curricula and promote the program's health messages.
• We Can! Across the Country and World: We are starting off 2012 with more than 1,700 registered community sites, and the number increases every week. We have seen a surge of new community sites in the Northeast region, particularly in New York, Pennsylvania and Connecticut.
