Substance Use Prevention

Substance use prevention stops drug use before it starts. It is a crucial component of any drug control strategy, but it faces ever-changing conditions that require new research to update best practices. What are the implications of cannabis reform? How does health care policy and financing affect where and how prevention can be delivered? And how do we prevent opioid misuse without harming pain patients? 

CALLC has prevention expertise at every level – from federal policy and programs to local implementation, especially SAMHSA's Center for Substance Abuse Prevention. A sample of our engagements showcases how we apply our deep prevention expertise across our full range of services.
