The Allstate Foundation generously provided the funding for this website. Youth interns from the social marketing agency Generation Communications (Gen Com) collaborated with adults to research, write, and design the site. Gen Com offers internships in web design, public speaking, research, marketing, and graphic design to youth 14-22. Generation Communications is a program of the Ojai Valley Youth Foundation (www.ovyf.org).
