Delta CTC fundraiser set for Aug. 24

ESCANABA — Delta County Communities That Care (CTC) will hold a brat sale fundraiser at Elmer’s County Market in Escanaba from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Friday, Aug., 24, with proceeds funding prevention efforts in Delta County.

The menu includes brats, hot dogs, chips and pop or water. Pre orders are welcome and delivery will be available for orders of $20 or more. Orders can be placed with Jenni Grabowski at (906) 789-8109 and are due Aug. 23.

Delta County CTC is a coalition of human service organizations and citizens interested in working together to identify risk factors and develop interventions for community problems such as substance abuse, delinquency, violence and suicide. This evidence-based program was introduced in Delta County in 2017.

Community input is a critical piece of the CTC model, with special emphasis on issues affecting youth. Earlier this year, surveys were conducted in Delta County schools with students in 6, 8, 10 and 12. From those survey results, Delta County CTC compiled the top five risk factors, and is now in the process of surveying the community at large to determine the top two issues for CTC to work on.
