STRONG FAMILIES/GREAT YOUTH COALITION - The coalition will prevent and reduce youth substance use by implementing the following strategies: (1) Conduct trainings on the science of addiction and motivational interviewing for laypersons. (2) Teach environmental strategies through common initiatives, such as a brief screening and intervention in the health department, a community garden (where there was formerly evidence of substance abuse), and environmental scanning to document and address the visibility of substance use in neighborhoods. (3) Provide workshops on the Strategic Prevention Framework and the comprehensive use of environmental strategies. (4) Conduct coaching in crafting a logic model and action plan. (5) Strengthen the Latino Coalition's collaboration with law enforcement through ride alongs and neighborhood watch programs.
