HEALTHY ALTERNATIVES REQUIRE TRANSITIONS (HART)

FAST-TRACK: SCALABLE DIGITAL DELIVERY OF EVIDENCE-BASED TRAINING FOR ADDICTION PROFESSIONALS TO MAXIMIZE TREATMENT ADMISSION AND RETENTION RATES OF OPIOID USE DISORDER IN AFFECTED FAMILIES. - EFFECTIVE MEDICATION-BASED TREATMENT COULD PREVENT OVERDOSE DEATHS AND HELP OVER 2 MILLION AMERICANS RECOVER FROM OPIOID USE DISORDER (OUD), BUT ONLY A FRACTION ACCESS SPECIALTY TREATMENT OR RECEIVE AN FDA-APPROVED MEDICATION. COMMUNITY REINFORCEMENT AND FAMILY TRAINING (CRAFT) WORKS WITH FAMILY MEMBERS TO GET TREATMENT RESISTANT INDIVIDUALS (IDENTIFIED PERSONS; IPS) INTO TREATMENT, AND 68% OF FAMILIES COACHED IN CRAFT ACHIEVE TREATMENT ENTRY FOR THEIR IP; ABOUT TWICE AS MANY AS COMPARISON GROUPS. HOWEVER, MOST ADDICTION PROFESSIONALS (COUNSELORS) ARE NOT TRAINED IN CRAFT OR DELIVER IT WITH QUESTIONABLE FIDELITY. THE GOAL OF THIS PROJECT IS TO DEVELOP AND EVALUATE THE TECHNICAL FEASIBILITY AND COMMERCIAL VIABILITY OF A SCALABLE DIGITAL COUNSELOR TRAINING PROGRAM FOR CRAFT. THE COUNSELOR PRODUCT WOULD BE TAILORED TO PREPARE COUNSELORS TO WORK WITH FAMILY MEMBERS OF INDIVIDUALS WITH OUD. IT WILL ALLOW COUNSELORS TO DELIVER HIGH-FIDELITY CRAFT AND SIGNIFICANTLY BENEFIT IPS AND THEIR FAMILIES AFFECTED BY OUD BY ADDRESSING THE CRITICAL BARRIER OF ACCESS TO A LEADING EVIDENCE-BASED APPROACH TO FAMILY INVOLVEMENT IN ADDICTION RECOVERY. CURRENT METHODS FOR TRAINING COUNSELORS AND DISSEMINATING ESTS, INCLUDING CRAFT, RELY ON BRIEF ONLINE OR IN-PERSON WORKSHOPS. HOWEVER, RESEARCH SHOWS THIS FORMAT IS MINIMALLY EFFECTIVE IN FACILITATING ADOPTION AND IMPLEMENTATION OF ESTS. A MORE EFFICACIOUS MODEL INCLUDES ONGOING COUNSELOR TRAINING WITH FEEDBACK AND COACHING. THIS PROJECT WILL DEVELOP AN ENHANCED TRAINING MODEL FOR CRAFT AND DIGITIZE IT TO MAXIMIZE SCALABILITY. IN THIS PROJECT, WE WILL: PRODUCE THE DIGITAL COUNSELOR TRAINING PROTOTYPE AND COACHING PROCESS, TAILORED TO OUD - WITH STAKEHOLDER INPUT (AIM 1); CONDUCT A PILOT STUDY OF 3 LEVELS OF DIGITAL TRAINING (LEVEL 1 -DIGITAL TUTORIAL ONLY [T]; LEVEL 2 -TUTORIAL & DIGITAL TRAINING MATERIALS FOR SELF-STUDY [TM]; LEVEL 3 – TUTORIAL, DIGITAL MATERIALS, FEEDBACK AND COACHING [TMC]) TO ESTABLISH FEASIBILITY, ACCEPTABILITY, AND EXAMINE THE EFFECTS OF TRAINING ON CRAFT KNOWLEDGE, FIDELITY, AND TREATMENT ENTRY AND RETENTION (AIM 2). VALIDATION OF FEASIBILITY AND COMMERCIAL MERIT IN THE PHASE I PILOT STUDY WILL PROVIDE SUBSTANTIATION TO ADVANCE TO PHASE II. IN ADDITION TO OPTIMIZING THE PRODUCT BASED ON PHASE I LEARNINGS AND STAKEHOLDER INPUT, PHASE II GOALS WILL INCLUDE COMPLETING DEVELOPMENT OF A SUPERVISED MACHINE LEARNING (SML) AUTOMATED CODING SYSTEM THAT WILL SCORE COUNSELOR-SUBMITTED DIGITAL AUDIOTAPES OF CRAFT SESSIONS AND GENERATE WRITTEN FEEDBACK INCLUDING SUGGESTIONS FOR IMPROVEMENT. THIS WILL ALLOW US TO DEMONSTRATE DIGITAL TRAINING EFFICACY AT SCALE AND COMMERCIAL READINESS (AIM 3). WE WILL CONDUCT A FULLY-POWERED RANDOMIZED CONTROL TRIAL COMPARING ALL PILOTED OUTCOMES FOR THE 3 TRAINING LEVEL CONDITIONS (AIM 4). THESE STUDIES FORM THE BASIS TO DEMONSTRATE COMMERCIAL READINESS AND VALUE TO PURCHASERS.

VIRGIN ISLANDS TURNING POINT – EXPANDING INTEGRATED RESIDENTIAL SUD/COD TREATMENT IN THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS - WESTCARE’S THE VILLAGE – VIRGIN ISLANDS PARTNERS IN RECOVERY (VIPIR), THE TERRITORY’S ONLY LONG-TERM RESIDENTIAL BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PROVIDER, PROPOSES THE VIRGIN ISLANDS TURNING POINT PROJECT TO EXPAND TRAUMA-INFORMED, EVIDENCE-BASED TREATMENT FOR ADULTS (18+) WITH SUBSTANCE USE AND CO-OCCURRING DISORDERS (SUD/COD) ACROSS THE ENTIRE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS. LEVERAGING OVER 30 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE AND BACKED BY THE NATIONAL WESTCARE FOUNDATION, VIPIR COMBINES DEEP LOCAL TRUST WITH NATIONAL ADMINISTRATIVE AND CLINICAL INFRASTRUCTURE. AS A U.S. TERRITORY PRIORITIZED UNDER THIS SAMHSA FUNDING OPPORTUNITY, THE VIRGIN ISLANDS FACE SIGNIFICANT STRUCTURAL BARRIERS TO BEHAVIORAL HEALTH ACCESS. VIPIR RECEIVES REFERRALS THAT FAR EXCEED ITS 25-BED CAPACITY, WITH A STANDING WAITLIST AND NO OTHER RESIDENTIAL ALTERNATIVES. TURNING POINT WILL CLOSE CRITICAL ACCESS GAPS BY EXPANDING RESIDENTIAL TREATMENT CAPACITY AND LAYERING IN PEER SUPPORT, HARM REDUCTION, SUICIDE SCREENING, AND PSYCHIATRIC SERVICES. POPULATION OF FOCUS: ADULTS AGED 18+ RESIDING IN THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS WITH SUD/COD, PARTICULARLY THOSE WHO ARE UNINSURED, UNDERINSURED, JUSTICE-INVOLVED, OR AT HIGH RISK OF OVERDOSE. THE USVI IS 76% BLACK OR AFRICAN AMERICAN, 18% HISPANIC/LATINO, AND 22.8% OF RESIDENTS LIVE IN POVERTY. OVER 20% OF HOUSEHOLDS SPEAK SPANISH OR FRENCH CREOLE AT HOME. ALTHOUGH NATIONAL SURVEILLANCE SYSTEMS LIKE NSDUH EXCLUDE THE USVI, AVAILABLE INDICATORS POINT TO HIGH UNMET NEED: THE PENETRATION RATE FOR PUBLICLY FUNDED BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES IS JUST 4.86 PER 1,000—NEARLY FIVE TIMES LOWER THAN THE U.S. AVERAGE OF 24.6 PER 1,000. THIS LIMITED ACCESS, COMPOUNDED BY WORKFORCE SHORTAGES AND GEOGRAPHIC ISOLATION, DRIVES THE URGENCY OF THIS PROPOSAL. STRATEGIES AND INTERVENTIONS: TURNING POINT WILL DELIVER A CULTURALLY RESPONSIVE CONTINUUM OF SERVICES ANCHORED IN TRAUMA-INFORMED CARE AND PERSON-CENTERED PLANNING. CORE INTERVENTIONS INCLUDE RESIDENTIAL SUD TREATMENT GROUNDED IN CBT, MOTIVATIONAL INTERVIEWING, AND SEEKING SAFETY; SUICIDE RISK SCREENING USING THE COLUMBIA-SUICIDE SEVERITY RATING SCALE; AND PEER RECOVERY SUPPORT SERVICES THROUGHOUT THE CARE PATHWAY. HARM REDUCTION WILL BE INTEGRATED THROUGH EDUCATION AND DISTRIBUTION OF NALOXONE AND FENTANYL TEST STRIPS. TOBACCO CESSATION, CASE MANAGEMENT, AND DISCHARGE PLANNING ARE EMBEDDED IN THE DAILY SCHEDULE, WHILE COD TREATMENT WILL BE COORDINATED VIA VIPIR’S LONG-STANDING PARTNERSHIP WITH FREDERIKSTED HEALTH CENTER. ALLOWABLE ACTIVITIES SUCH AS REENTRY SUPPORT, HOUSING NAVIGATION, AND HIV/HCV EDUCATION FURTHER STRENGTHEN THE MODEL’S RELEVANCE AND RESPONSIVENESS. GOALS AND MEASURABLE OBJECTIVES: • SERVE 80 UNDUPLICATED CLIENTS OVER 3 YEARS (YEAR 1: 25; YEAR 2: 30; YEAR 3: 25) • 75% OF CLIENTS WILL COMPLETE TREATMENT • 80% OF COMPLETERS WILL BE SUBSTANCE-FREE AT 6 MONTHS AND DISCHARGE • 70% WILL SHOW AND MAINTAIN REDUCED TRAUMA AND MENTAL HEALTH SYMPTOMS • 80% OF TOBACCO USERS WILL REDUCE OR CEASE USE • 80% OF COMPLETERS WILL ATTAIN EMPLOYMENT, EDUCATION, OR VOCATIONAL ENGAGEMENT

PUBLIC HOUSING CAPITAL FUND

PURPOSE: THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) PROGRAM PROVIDES ANNUAL GRANTS ON A FORMULA BASIS TO STATES, CITIES, AND COUNTIES TO DEVELOP VIABLE URBAN COMMUNITIES BY PROVIDING DECENT HOUSING AND A SUITABLE LIVING ENVIRONMENT, AND BY EXPANDING ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES, PRINCIPALLY FOR LOW- AND MODERATE-INCOME PERSONS. THE PROGRAM IS AUTHORIZED UNDER TITLE 1 OF THE HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACT OF 1974, PUBLIC LAW 93-383, AS AMENDED 42 U.S.C. 5301 ET SEQ. THE CDBG PROGRAM COVERS FOUR DISTINCT PROGRAMS, EACH WITH THEIR OWN SET OF GOVERNING REGULATIONS: CDBG ENTITLEMENT, CDBG NON-ENTITLED COUNTIES IN HAWAII, CDBG INSULAR AREAS, AND STATE CDBG. IN THE CDBG ENTITLEMENT PROGRAM, HUD AWARDS GRANTS TO ENTITLEMENT COMMUNITY GRANTEES TO CARRY OUT A WIDE RANGE OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES. ENTITLEMENT COMMUNITIES DEVELOP THEIR OWN PROGRAMS AND FUNDING PRIORITIES. IN THE CDBG NON-ENTITLED COUNTIES IN HAWAII PROGRAM, THREE COUNTIES QUALIFY: HAWAII, KAUAI, AND MAUI. THE FY 2004 APPROPRIATIONS ACT REQUIRED THE GOVERNOR OF HAWAII TO DECIDE IF THE STATE WISHED TO PARTICIPATE IN THE STATE CDBG PROGRAM BY JULY 31, 2004. THE STATE MADE THE DECISION NOT TO PARTICIPATE IN THE PROGRAM. AS A RESULT OF THIS DECISION HUD'S HONOLULU FIELD OFFICE ADMINISTERS THE NON-ENTITLED GRANTS IN HAWAII. FUNDS ARE ALLOCATED USING A FORMULA BASED ON POPULATION, POVERTY, AND HOUSING OVERCROWDING, WITH THE POVERTY FACTOR CARRYING A DOUBLE WEIGHT. FOR THE CDBG INSULAR AREAS PROGRAM, HUD ANNUALLY ALLOCATES CDBG GRANTS TO FOUR DESIGNATED AREAS: AMERICAN SAMOA; GUAM; NORTHERN MARIANA ISLANDS; AND THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS. THE FUNDS ARE ALLOCATED IN PROPORTION TO THE POPULATIONS OF THE ELIGIBLE TERRITORIES. THE PROGRAM IS ADMINISTERED BY HUD'S FIELD OFFICES IN PUERTO RICO AND HAWAII. UNDER THE STATE CDBG PROGRAM, STATES PASS THROUGH CDBG GRANTS TO UNITS OF GENERAL LOCAL GOVERNMENT. ANNUALLY, EACH STATE DEVELOPS FUNDING PRIORITIES AND CRITERIA FOR SELECTING PROJECTS. SINCE STATES ARE IN THE BEST POSITION TO KNOW, AND TO RESPOND TO, THE NEEDS OF LOCAL GOVERNMENTS, CONGRESS AMENDED THE HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACT OF 1974 (HCD ACT) IN 1981 TO GIVE EACH STATE THE OPPORTUNITY TO ADMINISTER CDBG FUNDS FOR NON-ENTITLEMENT AREAS. NON-ENTITLEMENT AREAS INCLUDE THOSE UNITS OF GENERAL LOCAL GOVERNMENT WHICH DO NOT RECEIVE CDBG FUNDS DIRECTLY FROM HUD. GENERALLY, NON-ENTITLEMENT AREAS ARE CITIES WITH POPULATIONS OF LESS THAN 50,000 (EXCEPT CITIES THAT ARE DESIGNATED PRINCIPAL CITIES OF METROPOLITAN STATISTICAL AREAS), AND COUNTIES WITH POPULATIONS OF LESS THAN 200,000. CURRENT CDBG AWARDS AND ALLOCATIONS ARE INCLUDED IN THIS LIST OF HUD COMMUNITY PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT (CPD) AWARDS AND ALLOCATIONS LOCATED AT: HTTPS://WWW.HUDEXCHANGE.INFO/GRANTEES/ALLOCATIONS-AWARDS/; ACTIVITIES TO BE PERFORMED: CDBG FUNDS MAY BE USED FOR ACTIVITIES WHICH INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO: ACQUISITION OF REAL PROPERTY; RELOCATION AND DEMOLITION; REHABILITATION OF RESIDENTIAL AND NON-RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURES; CONSTRUCTION OF PUBLIC FACILITIES AND IMPROVEMENTS, SUCH AS WATER AND SEWER FACILITIES, STREETS, NEIGHBORHOOD CENTERS, AND THE CONVERSION OF SCHOOL BUILDINGS FOR ELIGIBLE PURPOSES; PUBLIC SERVICES, WITHIN CERTAIN LIMITS; ACTIVITIES RELATING TO ENERGY CONSERVATION AND RENEWABLE ENERGY RESOURCES; PROVISION OF ASSISTANCE TO PROFIT-MOTIVATED BUSINESSES TO CARRY OUT ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND JOB CREATION/RETENTION ACTIVITIES. EACH ACTIVITY MUST MEET ONE OF THE FOLLOWING NATIONAL OBJECTIVES FOR THE PROGRAM: BENEFIT LOW- AND MODERATE-INCOME PERSONS, PREVENTION OR ELIMINATION OF SLUMS OR BLIGHT, OR ADDRESS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT NEEDS HAVING A PARTICULAR URGENCY BECAUSE EXISTING CONDITIONS POSE A SERIOUS AND IMMEDIATE THREAT TO THE HEALTH OR WELFARE OF THE COMMUNITY FOR WHICH OTHER FUNDING IS NOT AVAILABLE. GENERALLY, THE FOLLOWING TYPES OF ACTIVITIES ARE INELIGIBLE: ACQUISITION, CONSTRUCTION, OR RECONSTRUCTION OF BUILDINGS FOR THE GENERAL CONDUCT OF GOVERNMENT; POLITICAL ACTIVITIES; CERTAIN INCOME PAYMENTS; CONSTRUCTION OF NEW HOUSING (WITH SOME EXCEPTIONS). UNDER THE STATE CDBG PROGRAM, STATES MAY USE $100,000 PLUS UP TO A MAXIMUM OF THREE PERCENT OF ITS CDBG ALLOCATION. AMOUNTS EXPENDED ON ADMINISTRATION IN EXCESS OF $100,000 MUST BE MATCHED. STATES MAY EXPEND UP TO THREE PERCENT OF THEIR CDBG ALLOCATION ON TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE ACTIVITIES. HOWEVER, THE TOTAL A STATE SPENDS ON BOTH ADMINISTRATIVE AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE EXPENSES MAY NOT EXCEED $100,000 PLUS THREE PERCENT OF THE STATE'S ALLOCATION. CPD HAS DEVELOPED PROFILES THAT DISPLAY GRANTEE-REPORTED ACCOMPLISHMENTS FOR SELECTED HOUSING, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT, AND PUBLIC SERVICE ACTIVITIES. PROFILES FOR GRANTEES WILL VARY, AS GRANTEES HAVE FLEXIBILITY IN DETERMINING THE HOUSING, ECONOMIC, AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES THEY CARRY OUT WITH CDBG FUNDS. THE MOST RECENT ACCOMPLISHMENTS CAN BE VIEWED WITHIN THE NATIONAL ACCOMPLISHMENT REPORTS LOCATED AT: HTTPS://WWW.HUDEXCHANGE.INFO/PROGRAMS/CDBG/CDBG-ACCOMPLISHMENT-REPORTS/; EXPECTED OUTCOMES: THE CDBG PROGRAM REINFORCES SEVERAL IMPORTANT VALUES AND PRINCIPLES OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT: PROGRAM FLEXIBILITY TO EMPOWER PEOPLE AND COMMUNITIES TO DESIGN AND IMPLEMENT STRATEGIES TAILORED TO THEIR OWN NEEDS AND PRIORITIES; AN EMPHASIS ON CONSOLIDATED PLANNING THAT EXPANDS AND STRENGTHENS PARTNERSHIPS AMONG ALL LEVELS OF GOVERNMENT AND THE PRIVATE SECTOR IN ENHANCING COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT; TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE ACTIVITIES AND SET-ASIDE FOR GRANTEES TO BUILD THE CAPACITY OF THESE PARTNERS. EACH CDBG GRANTEE’S EXPECTED OUTCOMES ARE DESCRIBED AS GOALS IN THEIR CONSOLIDATED PLAN. THE MOST RECENT CONSOLIDATED PLANS CAN BE VIEWED AT: HTTPS://WWW.HUDEXCHANGE.INFO/GRANTEES/REPORTS/#CONSOLIDATED-PLANS-ANNUAL-ACTION-PLANS-AND-CAPERS; INTENDED BENEFICIARIES: OVER A 1, 2, OR 3-YEAR PERIOD, AS SELECTED BY THE GRANTEE, NOT LESS THAN 70 PERCENT OF CDBG FUNDS MUST BE USED FOR ACTIVITIES THAT BENEFIT LOW- AND MODERATE-INCOME PERSONS. HUD DOES NOT PROVIDE CDBG ASSISTANCE DIRECTLY TO INDIVIDUALS, BUSINESSES, NONPROFIT OR ORGANIZATIONS OR OTHER NON-GOVERNMENTAL ENTITIES. INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE INTERESTED IN PARTICIPATING IN THIS PROGRAM, SHOULD CONTACT THEIR LOCAL MUNICIPAL OR COUNTY OFFICIALS TO FIND OUT HOW THE PROGRAM OPERATES IN THEIR COMMUNITY. PARTICIPATION REQUIREMENTS MAY DIFFER FROM ONE GRANTEE TO ANOTHER. WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE STATE CDBG PROGRAM, THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT GRANTEE ADMINISTERS THE CDBG PROGRAM AND DETERMINES WHICH LOCAL PROJECTS RECEIVE FUNDING. ELIGIBLE GRANTEES ARE AS FOLLOWS: PRINCIPAL CITIES OF METROPOLITAN STATISTICAL AREAS (MSAS); OTHER METROPOLITAN CITIES WITH POPULATIONS OF AT LEAST 50,000; QUALIFIED URBAN COUNTIES WITH POPULATIONS OF AT LEAST 200,000 (EXCLUDING THE POPULATION OF ENTITLED CITIES); STATES AND INSULAR AREAS. THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA IS FUNDED UNDER THE CDBG ENTITLEMENT PROGRAM. THE STATE OF HAWAII DOES NOT PARTICIPATE, AND HUD ALLOCATES THE STATE'S SHARE OF FUNDS TO THE THREE HAWAII NON-ENTITLED COUNTIES. THE STATES ADMINISTER CDBG FUNDS IN THE STATE CDBG PROGRAM. SINCE STATES ARE IN THE BEST POSITION TO KNOW, AND TO RESPOND TO, THE NEEDS OF LOCAL GOVERNMENTS, CONGRESS AMENDED THE HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACT OF 1974 (HCD ACT) IN 1981 TO GIVE EACH STATE THE OPPORTUNITY TO ADMINISTER CDBG FUNDS FOR NON-ENTITLEMENT AREAS.; SUBRECIPIENT ACTIVITIES: THE SUBRECIPIENT ACTIVITIES ARE UNKNOWN AT THE TIME OF AWARD.

VERNON, CT RESOURCES AND OUTREACH FOR COMMUNITY KNOWLEDGE AND SUCCESS (ROCKS) YOUTH SUBSTANCE ABUSE PREVENTION PROJECT - THE VILLAGE FOR FAMILIES & CHILDREN, INC. (THE VILLAGE) IN PARTNERSHIP WITH VERNON ROCKS (RESOURCES AND OUTREACH FOR COMMUNITY KNOWLEDGE AND SUCCESS), THE TOWN’S DRUG AND ALCOHOL PREVENTION COUNCIL, WILL EXPAND CURRENT PREVENTION ACTIVITIES AIMED AT STUDENTS IN GRADES 6-12 IN VERNON, CT. THE PROJECT FOCUSES ON PREVENTING THE USE OF ALCOHOL AND MARIJUANA BY DECREASING ACCESS TO THESE SUBSTANCES, INCREASING PROTECTIVE FACTORS THAT PREVENT TEENS FROM USING, AND EMPOWERING PARENTS AND FRIENDS TO EXERT POSITIVE INFLUENCE ON STUDENTS’ BEHAVIOR. IN 2022-23, THE TARGET POPULATION OF ROCKVILLE HIGH AND VERNON MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS WAS 1,610; 54% WHITE, 12% BLACK/AFRICAN AMERICAN, 21% LATINO, 6% ASIAN, 7% OTHER. KEY METRICS INDICATIVE OF INCREASED RISK OF SUBSTANCE USE AND ABUSE INCLUDE HIGH RATES OF CHRONIC ABSENTEEISM AND SUSPENSIONS/EXPULSIONS AND A LOWER FOUR-YEAR COHORT GRADUATION RATE COMPARED TO STATEWIDE AVERAGES. THESE SAME METRICS INDICATE EVEN GREATER DISTRESS IN STUDENTS ELIGIBLE FOR FREE AND REDUCED-PRICE SCHOOL MEALS – A PROXY FOR SOCIO-ECONOMIC STATUS – AND STUDENTS OF COLOR. THE 2023 YOUTH VOICES COUNT SURVEY OF 1,348 STUDENTS SUBSTANTIATES THE NEED TO ADDRESS ALCOHOL AND MARIJUANA USE AMONG TEENS. PAST 30-DAY USE FOR ALCOHOL (2.89%) AND MARIJUANA (6.4%) EXCEEDS ANY OTHER SUBSTANCE. THE AVERAGE AGE OF FIRST USE WAS 13 FOR ALCOHOL AND 13.8 FOR MARIJUANA. ADDITIONALLY, STUDENTS’ PERCEPTION OF THE HARM CAUSED BY ALCOHOL AND MARIJUANA IS LOWER THAN FOR OTHER SUBSTANCES, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF NICOTINE VAPING. THE STATE OF CONNECTICUT HAS IDENTIFIED VAPING AS A PRIORITY AND HAS DEDICATED SUBSTANTIAL RESOURCES TOWARD PREVENTION EFFORTS FOR THAT SUBSTANCE. FOR THAT REASON, VERNON ROCKS WILL FOCUS ON ALCOHOL AND MARIJUANA AS TARGET SUBSTANCES FOR THIS PROJECT. UTILIZING SAMHSA’S STRATEGIC PREVENTION FRAMEWORK, VERNON ROCKS HAS DEVELOPED PROJECT GOALS AND CREATED KEY ENVIRONMENTAL STRATEGIES GROUNDED IN A PUBLIC HEALTH APPROACH TO PREVENTION. OVER THE COURSE OF THE 5-YEAR GRANT PERIOD THE COALITION WILL ACHIEVE STRONGER COMMUNITY COLLABORATION TOWARD PREVENTION EFFORTS, WHICH WILL LEAD TO INCREASED CAPACITY AND READINESS TO ADDRESS YOUTH SUBSTANCE USE. IN YEAR 1, THE PROJECT WILL INCREASE COMMUNITY COLLABORATION BY 1) EXPANDING THE COALITION’S MEMBERSHIP FROM 28 TO 31 TO INCREASE REPRESENTATION OF PARENTS, YOUTH, AND DIVERSE COMMUNITY SECTORS, 2) PROVIDING TRAINING/EDUCATION OPPORTUNITIES FOR COALITION MEMBERS AND COMMUNITY STAKEHOLDERS, AND 3) INCREASING MEMBERS’ PARTICIPATION IN COALITION EVENTS. BY THE END OF THE 5-YEAR GRANT PERIOD THE PROJECT WILL ACHIEVE 1) A REDUCTION BY 30.8% THE RATE YOUTH REPORT PAST 30-DAY ALCOHOL USE FROM 2.89% TO 2% AND 2) A REDUCTION IN 30-DAY PAST USE OF MARIJUANA BY STUDENTS BY 21.8% (6.4% TO 5%). YEAR 1 STRATEGIES THAT WILL SUPPORT THESE PROGRAM GOALS INCLUDE TRAINING AND EDUCATION OPPORTUNITIES FOR PARENTS; PROVIDING ALTERNATIVE, PROSOCIAL ACTIVITIES FOR YOUTH; AND PEER-TO-PEER MARKETING CAMPAIGNS AND SOCIAL GROUPS. A FORMATIVE EVALUATION WILL SUPPORT THE COALITION’S UNDERSTANDING OF THE EFFECTIVENESS OF STRATEGIES AND ACTIVITIES AND WILL GUIDE AN ANNUAL REVIEW OF PROGRAM GOALS, OBJECTIVES, AND ACTIVITIES.

STAFFORD AND ELLINGTON EXPANDING DELIVERY OF PREVENTION (SEED) - THE VILLAGE FOR FAMILIES & CHILDREN’S STAFFORD AND ELLINGTON EXPANDING DELIVERY OF PREVENTION (SEED) WILL STRENGTHEN THE CAPACITIES OF TWO LOCAL PREVENTION COALITIONS IN AN AREA OF SUBURBAN AND RURAL CONNECTICUT. OVER 5 YEARS, SEED WILL DIRECTLY IMPACT 4,186 YOUTH AGES 11-18 AND WILL INDIRECTLY IMPACT 2,095 FAMILY AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS. ANNUALLY, SEED WILL SERVE 1,256 YOUTH, FAMILIES, AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS WITH EVIDENCE-BASED PREVENTION STRATEGIES. STAFFORD AND ELLINGTON ARE ADJACENT COMMUNITIES IN NORTH CENTRAL CONNECTICUT AND HAVE A COMBINED POPULATION OF 27,811 RESIDENTS, 16,339 AND 11,472 RESPECTIVELY. ELLINGTON’S MEDIAN HOUSEHOLD INCOME IS $124, 495 WHILE STAFFORD’S IS $92,292. BOTH COMMUNITIES HAVE A POVERTY RATE OF ABOUT 6%.
