SPAN's leadership structure is comprised of both coalition staff and numerous volunteers. There is a Coalition Director and two Project Coordinators for Capacity Building and Communications, all of which are placed in the Needham Public Heath Department. The coalition created a Leadership Team comprised of nine members, including leaders from the school administration, the police department and public health, as well as parents from varied professions and staff. This broad community participation has resulted in enhanced awareness of our mission and ongoing prevention initiatives among key decision-makers and stakeholders within town.
