DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN SERVICES
CHILD AND FAMILY SUBSTANCE ABUSE PREVENTION AND EARLY INTERVENTION
PROGRAM MISSION: To
prevent youth from using and abusing alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs by
promoting healthy functioning of families affected by alcohol, tobacco, and
other drug usage.
The Substance Abuse Prevention and Early Intervention
Program prevents the development of substance abuse problems in youth by
providing education and counseling to students, parents and school staff in the
school setting and in the community. Staff provides leadership in working with
public and private agencies to bring substance abuse prevention activities to a
broader population. Staff offers
outcome-based prevention programs approved by the federal Center for Substance
Abuse Prevention (CSAP) as well as alternative/character building activities
designed to address student risk factors and enhance protective factors. Assessment and referral services are
provided to higher risk youth and their families. Consultation and training are provided to staff and parents.

SIGNIFICANT BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS:
-
Increase in expenditures, net tax support and FTEs is
due to reorganization within Child and Family Services, involving the
reallocation of 1.0 FTE (Mental Health Supervisor II) from the Child and Family
Mental Health/Substance Abuse Treatment program.
-
Grants increase in FY 2004 due to the inclusion of
a $10,000 grant for a youth tobacco reduction initiative that will now be part
of the ongoing funding for the program.
-
Substance Abuse Prevention is shown as a separate
program from Substance Abuse Treatment.
Substance Abuse Treatment was integrated with Mental Health Services to
effectively address the needs of those dually diagnosed with mental illness and
substance abusing behaviors.
PERFORMANCE MEASURES:
Objective: To increase parental awareness of their child's
involvement in alcohol or other drug use, and their knowledge of community
resources.
