The STRYVE Action Council was formed in 2010 to leverage the expertise, resources and influence of partners inside and outside of public health and advance our work in communities. The CDC guides and administers the STRYVE Action Council with support from the Safe States Alliance. All Action Council member organizations provide voluntary, in-kind support to the STRYVE Action Council and its activities.
