| Technical Assistance Northeast CAPT technical assistance services target state prevention
leaders and practitioners (e.g., SIG and SSA staff), and leaders and
providers at the community or local level (e.g., active SIG subrecipient
coalitions, and local education agencies) across a range of settings.
Topics
We address a wide variety of content areas including assessment and evaluation,
program selection, balancing fidelity and adaptation, and effective
prevention strategies. We also provide in-depth TA on topics such as
program design, crafting evaluation designs, effective methods for
sharing data, developing a communications plan, creating a statewide
prevention plan, and choosing appropriate programs.
Types of TA
- On-site Face-to-Face TA. Northeast CAPT staff and associates,
representing every state in our region, provide training and in-depth
TA to other prevention practitioners on a variety of topics, such
as designing an organizational strategic plan, selecting an appropriate
prevention program, developing an appropriate evaluation plan, or
creating
a comprehensive communications plan.
- Computer-Based TA. Northeast CAPT offers TA on strategic
planning, evaluation, assessment, program selection, fidelity, adaptation,
and
sustainability, delivered via Web bulletin boards to online communities
of learners and other events as a follow-up to training events, institutes,
distance learning, and videoconferencing through both regional and
state-specific events.
- Information Technology. Northeast CAPT staff members respond
to TA requests submitted via phone, e-mail, and web-based forms. Each
day, TA staff monitor our 800 number and designated e-mail address
for service requests. These TA requests are tracked regularly and often
form
the basis of print FAQs distributed at training events, during other
TA contacts, and via electronic methods.
