Preventing Onset of Use: Who, What, Where, When, and How?

Join us for a brief primer regarding the basics of primary prevention, followed by an illuminating trip through three RCORP grantee communities skillfully implementing strategies to prevent the onset of substance use. Grantees from Georgia, Missouri, and Texas will share their experiences partnering with schools, faith-based organizations, and the community at large to effectively increase protective factors and decrease risk factors related to substance use.
