IN THE NEAR FUTURE.

What will prevention services

look like?

How will providers receive the most

up-to-date SUPPORT?

Is success…

• The number of clients served ?

• Their satisfaction ?

• The size of your staff ?

• The size of your annual budget ?

IN THE NEAR FUTURE.

Prevention: A Changing Approach

• Accountability Providers must detail a proven track record of community successes

• Focus on Outcomes Providers must generate a plan that responds to the negative consequences of ATOD use

• Organizational Capacity Providers must demonstrate the ability to provide service and deliver outcomes

• Community Connectedness Providers must have a track record of partnering with communities in a meaningful way

Prevention: Focused on Data

• SPF + RFP Now, providers detail how they will use the Strategic Prevention Framework (SPF) to tackle substance abuse problems

• Data-Driven Now, community coalitions use data to solve crucial AOD problems

• National Outcome Measures Now, outcomes should affect “population level change”

• Sustainability Now, many CBOs view the SPF not just as a prevention framework, but as a tool that encourages long-term stability

The Strategy Behind the SPFStrategic Substance abuse

problems are seen from a “public health model.”

Prevention Only evidence-based programs are used

Framework The 5 step process builds capacity for agencies and coalitions as they assess needs, strategize, implement and evaluate

Sustainability and Cultural Competence Emphasis placed on long-term change that serves communities effectively and appropriately

How can states help CBOs navigate this new

environment?

The Evidence is Clear

Major funding streams now aligned withStrategic Prevention Framework:

1) SPF-SIG 4) Minority AIDS Initiative (MAI)

2) Communities Putting Prevention to Work (CDC)

5) Block Grant

3) Drug-Free Community Grant (DFC)

6) Safe and Drug Free Schools (Dept of Ed)

The Evidence is Clear

• Congress requires National Outcome Measure (NOMs)

• US Cabinet-level departments Justice, Education, and Labor embrace the SPF as a planning tool

• Emergence of infrastructure building grants (eg, SAMHSA coalition grants)

Change is Happening Across US Communities

• San Diego County has been using a SPF-aligned system since 1997

• In 2005 California aligned their State Incentive Grant with the SPF

• Since 2008 ALL California counties have been required to use the SPF
