Strategic prevention framework-partnerships for success - the holly area community coalition is applying for the SPF-PFS grant to address alcohol misuse, marijuana use and electronic delivery systems (ends) in our community. We plan to serve youth and adults in the rural community of holly, MI. We will address the increase use of alcohol, marijuana and ends by partnering with our community to provide activities, campaigns and resources. This project will serve the youth in our community through school messaging, social media, our local cable stations and events. We will also reach parents and community members through social media, events and town hall meetings. Our goals are 1. Strengthen prevention capacity/infrastructure at the community/state level- our measurable objective is to: increase community capacity for prevention by increasing community substance use prevention initiatives as measured by 10% increase in the number of youth, adult and community prevention initiatives by september 2025 and 2. Prevent the onset and the reduce of progression of substance misuse, our measurable objective is to: reduce past 30 day use of alcohol, marijuana and ends by 6-10% and increase perception of risk of by september 2025 . We hope to affect policy at the local and state level with our involvement in state initiatives. We expect to reach 50,000 each year, with the expected reach of 250,000 in five years. With PSA's and social media, the reach may even be greater.
