Directions Website

Bucoda-Tenino Healthy Action Team B-THAT supports, educates and helps youth and the community build a positive and healthy future. TOGETHER! Anyone is welcome to join the coalition.

B-THAT was developed in partnership with TOGETHER!, the Tenino School District, Educational Service District 113, Thurston County Public Health and Social Services, and the Washington State Department of Social and Health Services. In 2010, middle and high school students in the community were asked to participate in the Healthy Youth Survey http://www.hys.wa.gov/. Based upon these results and other community specific data, it was determined that Tenino was an at risk community. The Tenino/Bucoda Community Coalition will serve to develop and implement strategies to promote safe and healthy youth as a means of prevention. TOGETHER!, a non-profit agency serving Thurston County for over 20 years is coordinating this project. works to engage and mobilize families, schools and the community to advance the health, safety and success of our youth. Current members include youth, parents, teachers, administrators, local officials, and other caring members of the local community. Meetings are held every 3rd Monday @ 5:15 pm at Tenino Middle School in the commons.

We want to make our community a healthier, safer place for youth and families—and we need YOUR help!

This short community survey helps us better understand what’s going on with our youth. Your answers help guide local prevention efforts around substance use, mental well-being, and healthy choices.

The survey is anonymous, quick to complete, and your input truly makes a difference. Results help B-THAT decide where to focus their efforts and resources.

By taking the survey, you’re helping shape a healthier future for our community.

Thank you for taking a few minutes to share your voice.
