Evidence-Based Programs
-
- CSAP's Model Programs
- The SAMHSA Model Programs featured on this site have been rigorously
evaluated and have provided solid proof that they have prevented or
reduced substance abuse and other related high-risk behaviors. All programs
have been reviewed by SAMHSA's National Registry of Evidence-based Programs
and Practices (NREPP). This Web site serves as a comprehensive resource
for anyone interested in learning about and/or implementing these programs.
-
- CSAP's Northeast CAPT's
Database of Effective Prevention Programs
- CSAP's Northeast CAPT has created an online, searchable database of
effective prevention programs approved by a variety of federal and research
agencies. The database allows visitors to compare selection criteria
across agencies, review information about the sources those agencies
used for their evaluations, and find contact information and descriptions
of each intervention.
- CSAP's
Western CAPT's Best and Promising Practices
- This searchable
database includes practices that have been shown to be effective
in preventing substance abuse and/or the risk factors for substance
abuse. Information is provided regarding training, technical assistance
and/or materials that facilitate replication of each practice.
- U.S.
Department of Education's Safe and Drug-Free Schools' Exemplary and
Promising Programs
- The U.S. Department of Education's Safe and Drug-Free Schools Program
has used an
expert panel process to identify programs that should be promoted
nationally as
promising or
exemplary. A 15-member Expert Panel oversaw a valid and reliable
process for identifying effective school-based programs that promote
healthy students and safe, disciplined, and drug-free schools. Using
this process, the panel identified 9 exemplary and 33 promising programs.
- Office of Juvenile
Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP)
- The
OJJDP Model Programs Guide is a user-friendly, online portal to
scientifically tested and proven programs that address a range of issues
across the juvenile justice spectrum. Developed as a tool to support
the Title V Community Prevention Grants Program, the Guide has been
recently expanded. The Guide now profiles more than 175 prevention and
intervention programs and helps communities identify those that best
suit their needs. Users can search the Guide's database by program category,
target population, risk and protective factors, effectiveness rating,
and other parameters. Juvenile justice practitioners are encouraged
to take advantage of this helpful resource.
- Blueprints
for Violence Prevention
- The Center for the Study and Prevention of Violence at the University
of Colorado at Boulder, with support from the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention and OJJDP, designed and launched a national violence
prevention initiative to identify violence prevention programs that
are effective. The project has identified 11 model programs that meet
a strict scientific standard of program effectiveness. Another 18 programs
have been identified as promising. These interventions have been summarized
in a series of "blueprints" that describe their theoretical
rationales, core components, evaluation designs and results, and practical
implementation experiences across multiple sites.
