“…One factor that may contribute to the modest number of studies examining behavioral outcomes is that process measures are more readily available across local and state prevention systems, whereas behavioral outcome data may be limited (e.g., Orwin et al, 2014; Piper et al, 2012). Our findings suggest that SPF implementation may support coalitions in facilitating community changes, which may contribute to some modest improvements in binge drinking and enforcement-related outcomes over time.…”

“…Rather, several studies have been published on enhancing coalition capacity and infrastructure to support SPF implementation (e.g., Anderson-Carpenter, Watson-Thompson, Jones, & Chaney, 2014; Florin et al, 2012; Orwin, Stein-Seroussi, Edwards, Landy, & Flewelling, 2014). Although studies have described process measures used in SPF implementation (e.g., Florin et al, 2012; Piper et al, 2012), few published studies have examined its effects on changes in substance use outcomes and related influencing factors. Thus, the purpose of this multi-site study is to examine the effects of implementing the SPF on binge drinking and enforcement of existing underage drinking laws across multiple school districts.…”

The Strategic Prevention Framework (SPF) is a conceptual model that supports coalition-driven efforts to address underage drinking and related consequences. Although the SPF has been promoted by the U.S. Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration’s Center for Substance Abuse Prevention and implemented in multiple U.S. states and territories, there is limited research on the SPF’s effectiveness on improving targeted outcomes and associated influencing factors. The present quasi-experimental study examines the effects of SPF implementation on binge drinking and enforcement of existing underage drinking laws as an influencing factor. The intervention group encompassed 11 school districts that were implementing the SPF with local prevention coalitions across eight Kansas communities. The comparison group consisted of 14 school districts that were matched based on demographic variables. The intervention districts collectively facilitated 137 community-level changes, including new or modified programs, policies, and practices. SPF implementation supported significant improvements in binge drinking and enforcement outcomes over time (p < .001), although there were no significant differences in improvements between the intervention and matched comparison groups (p > .05). Overall, the findings provide a basis for guiding future research and community-based prevention practice in implementing and evaluating the SPF.

“…Prevention coalitions in five rural counties that were part of the Center for Substance Abuse Prevention‐funded Tennessee Strategic Prevention Framework State Incentive Grant (SPF‐SIG) volunteered to implement the sustainability strategy being presented during the fifth year of the 6‐year grant that included a no‐cost extension (Collins, Johnson, & White, ). The SPF‐SIG grant program was launched by Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration/Center for Substance Abuse Prevention to provide a framework for strengthening state‐level and community‐level substance abuse prevention systems and to implement evidence‐based prevention programs and practices in communities to reduce substance abuse and related problems (Piper, Stein‐Seroussi, Flewelling, Orwin, & Buchanan, ). This grant program required states and communities to use a five‐stage SPF intervention that involved assessment, capacity‐building, planning, implementation, and evaluation, as well as two cross‐cutting elements, cultural competence, and sustainability.…”

This article presents a sustainability strategy, its implementation protocols, and a pilot study of implementation and sustainability readiness. The strategy is guided by a conceptual framework that integrates (a) a strategy for sustaining prevention infrastructure and interventions and (b) a planning and evaluation process known as Getting To Outcomes. Data‐informed decision making is key to this strategy, which includes initial assessment of sustainability capacity and sustainable innovation characteristics, and progresses through planning, implementation, evaluation, and continuous quality improvement to sustain targeted innovations. A support system for implementing the strategy, including a toolkit, primer, electronic tools, and training and technical assistance, is described. Lessons learned from a pilot study for future testing and implementation of the strategy are also discussed. In sum, the article presents a conceptual‐based strategy to sustainability, an innovative support system, and lessons learned that have important implications for improving the evaluation and practice of sustainability.

“…These inefficiencies can be addressed to improve the composition of local behavioral health care systems. Assessing the local system requires both a framework for defining an adequate care system and a method for estimating demand for each component of the system to address the behavioral health care needs of the community population (10). …”

Evidence-based programs for prevention and intervention in substance abuse are increasing. Community needs assessments and health rankings provide descriptions of local behavioral health needs but do not provide public health practitioners and policy makers with guidelines on the number of programs, health care practitioners, or interventions needed in the local substance abuse care system. This article presents a new framework for measuring and assessing the substance abuse care system in a community. The assessment can inform resource allocation across the continuum of care to more equitably and efficiently distribute interventions and care. We conducted 2 literature reviews and synthesized our findings to create a community assessment methodology and needs calculator, CAST (calculating for an adequate system tool). We reviewed 212 articles to produce an inventory of community and social correlates of behavioral health, components of a substance abuse care system, and numerical values for guidelines for estimating community needs. CAST produces community-specific assessments of the capacity of the components of a community substance abuse care system. CAST generates recommendations by the application of social and community determinants of health as risk coefficients to each estimate of component need. CAST can assist public health practitioners in evaluation and improvement of the capacity of community-based, substance abuse care systems. By using recommendations for component needs across the continuum of care, community leaders can use CAST to prioritize resource allocation more effectively and efficiently.
