21 Wide Ranging Approaches Have Been Found To Be Effective in Childhood and Adolescence 1. Prenatal & Infancy Programs 2. Early Childhood Education 3. Parent Training i 4. After-school Recreation 5. Mentoring with Contingent Reinforcement 6. Youth Employment with Education 7. Organizational Change in Schools (Hawkins & Catalano, 2004) 8. Classroom Organization, Management, and Instructional Strategies 9. School Behavior Management Strategies 10. Classroom Curricula for Social Competence Promotion 11. Community & School Policies 12. Community Mobilization

22 But Prevention approaches that do not work or have not been evaluated have been more widely used than those shown to be effective. (Gottfredson et al 2000, Hallfors et al 2000, Hantman et al 2000, Mendel et al 2000, Silvia et al 1997; Smith et al 2002)

23 Challenges for States and Communities in Using Prevention Science Matching tested, effective programs to local need Tested, effective programs/systems compete with best best, usual, or new practice Tested, effective programs require training, technical assistance, and monitoring to be delivered with fidelity Achieving population wide outcomes

46 Summary and Implications There is evidence that we can advance public health and achieve population wide outcomes in our communities by using CTC Risk and protective factors for young adulthood substance misuse overlap with those for adolescents. Unique risk factors in young adulthood d also identified There are tested effective prevention programs for young adulthood. Using CTC C to prevent young adult substance misuse will require modifications

47 CTC Modifications for Young Adults Modification of youth survey to capture relevant child, adolescent and young adult risk and protective factors Development of normative data base and comparative display for risk and protective factors Development of Prevention Strategies Guide for young adulthood Development of tools for monitoring of fidelity and outcomes in routine program delivery
