Webinar Overview

Prevention has grown as a discipline over the last 30 years. The continued emphasis in the field of using “evidence-based” interventions, along with increased knowledge of what is effective, has led to greater community success at improving substance-related outcomes. Once these successful prevention efforts are in place, how do communities sustain these efforts over time? As a follow-up to Part I in this webinar series, this webinar will provide the specific tools to help prevention professionals and community members answer this question. Note: Attendees should join this webinar even if they did not attend Part I in the series! A soon-to-be-released toolkit will be discussed and participants will have the opportunity to practice specific sustainability strategies.
