Watch the recording of the virtual Southeast Regional Summit on Prevention and Equity to hear from peers, prevention & public health professionals, researchers, and government officials.

This summit was developed in response to a need identified in Region 4 to provide professionals in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee the opportunity to examine the implications and challenges of advancing both equity and substance misuse prevention and share best practices and lessons learned. The summit featured panelists and presenters with expertise in Appalachian and rural communities, Native American, LGBTQ and African American communities.
