Princeton SYNC™: Change Happens Here
Welcome to Princeton SYNC! Our work is currently focused on supporting the Princeton School District and community. Since early 2026 we have implemented a new survey about technology usage and mental health outcomes for 4th Grade and up, reviewed local data, and begun building a local community coalition of community leaders to ensure our young people are growing up with the supports they need to live their best lives.
Madelyn Westra, Community Coordinator
Madelyn brings a background in communications, marketing, and community engagement, with experience connecting schools, organizations, and communities around meaningful initiatives. As the Princeton SYNC Community Coordinator, she is passionate about fostering a community
where youth feel connected, supported, and empowered. She believes youth mental health is a shared responsibility and that lasting change happens when schools, families, healthcare providers, and community members work together to build strong relationships and a sense of belonging for every young person.
