The North Carolina Centers for Prevention Resources are partnering with the North Carolina State Office of Prevention and SAMHSA Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (CSAP) to help solicit organization and coalitions interested in hosting a National Prevention Week 2012 Event.
National Prevention Week is an exciting, new observance that brings communities together through local events, rallies, and celebrations focusing on the prevention of substance use disorders and mental illness, and the promotion of mental, emotional, and behavioral well-being. These local events are part of a new national movement to raise awareness around these important issues. The first annual National Prevention Week is May 20-26, 2012.
To support communities’ participation in National Prevention Week 2012, SAMHSA will provide pilot site awards of $500 to select organizations and coalitions interested in hosting a prevention-themed event or celebration. The awards are meant to help cover or defray some of the costs involved in planning and executing the National Prevention Week 2012 events. SAMHSA will also provide a toolkit via the SAMHSA Web site to support organizations’ planning efforts.
