Substance Abuse Prevention Program

The Substance Abuse Prevention Program supports a comprehensive array of services targeting prevention of the abuse of alcohol, tobacco and other drugs (ATOD) throughout the commonwealth.

The program works with a variety of organizations and agencies to develop prevention policies, programs and services. It oversees a network of 14 Regional Prevention Centers across the state that provide technical assistance and training on evidence-based prevention strategies.

Kentucky's prevention system receives funding from the federal Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (CSAP), the U.S. Department of Education and the Kentucky General Assembly. The state bases its efforts on CSAP's six prevention strategies: information dissemination, education, alternatives, problem identification and referral, community-based process, and environmental change.
