WYOMING PREVENTION TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE CONSORTIUM - for Wyoming Tobacco, Substance Abuse & Suicide Prevention Programs
CORE PREVENTION
 
Wyoming has combined the prevention portion of the Federal Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment (SAPT) Block Grant dollars, in conjunction with State dollars, to create the Core Prevention Grant.  The overarching goal of the Core Prevention Grant is to create a sustainable prevention system in Wyoming, through a community-level integrated and collaborative approach. This grant seeks to fund core substance abuse and suicide prevention efforts throughout Wyoming’s 23 counties, including the Wind River Indian Reservation. The Core Prevention Grant became effective July 1, 2010.
