SPF SIG Power point talking points

Slide 1:

Name/County/High school

State number of soberdays-number of days living on earth!

Reason for visit:Help fight substance abuse in our community

Funding Source:Federal Grant from SAMHSA –Substance Abuse & Mental Health Services Administration

Framework to use in fighting substance use

1. Building state and community infrastructure

2. Provide framework to address SA problems

SPF SIG (flower)

Slide 2:

(?Why R we here?)

Increase awareness of how IN is fighting SA

Inform communities on potential prevention efforts

Offer opportunities 4 U to be involved

Leader to next slide: (? But why prevention)

Slide 3:

(? How many have children, grandchildren, or friends w/children between 12-18?)

Point interest

Indiana-1 of 3 Hoosiers (age 12-^) currently using tobacco

1 of 2 Hoosiers (age 12-^) currently drinking alcohol

1of 5 Hoosiers (age 12- ^) engage in binge drinking

Illegal1 of 5 Hoosiers (age 12 - ^) currently using marijuana

At any age

If this isn’t compelling enough consider:

Financial burden- Indiana alone for SA related problems

1998- 1.4 billion

2002- 3.2 billion

(? Can you share some ideas of where you think these dollars are going?)

[criminal justice, insurance, medical ins. $, loss of productivity]

~personal story

(? How can we assure our $ are spent wisely?)

Slide 4:

Using current data- Show 2007State Epi Profile Report

This report:

Proven evidence where and what Indiana’s SA problems are—show map (pg 41)

(? Can you guess what this map may depict?) DUI arrests

(?What does this show about your county? Is yours a darker or lighter co?)

Based on data this project is able to focus and identify:

Datadriven evidence based prevention efforts(what’s worked in the past)

Slide 5:

Data table identifies one of Indiana’s problems- Blue line depicts our state and the red line represents the United States percentage

(? What do you think this slide might represent)

Public intoxication arrests (page 38)

(? Can you share what you think are the substance most problematic in our state?)

Alcohol

Tobacco –(80% of prevention $ in IN)

Marijuana-(controversial and political will/support)

Cocaine

Methamphetamine

Prescription drugs-(lack of data and limited support)

*All of the drugs you’ve mentioned are reported on in this Epi report, but with limited dollars and time it was required that Indiana identify only 3 substances to be funded:

Slide 6:

Funded Priorities: (ask 3 different people to read apriority-preferably the one who named the priority)

Alcohol

Cocaine

Methamphetamine

Based on the priorities identified by the data the state has looked where they are

most prevalent, put out a request for services and now is funding these counties:

Slide 7:

Counties funded to pilot SPF process

(LakeCounty has been funded for both alcohol and cocaine and Greene Daviess combined efforts in addressing methamphetamine)

Nine additional counties are being considered to join the project at this time

Slide 8:

Indiana began the process by creating a vision and mission

Vision (ask someone to read)

Mission (ask someone to read)

Then the process was begun…

Slide 9:

There are 5 steps in the SPF process;

Assessment: data collection- epi report

Build Capacity- building infrastructure, identify stake holders and resources needed

Planning- taking data and looking at capacity and writing strategic plan

Implementation-implement programs, practices or policies identified as evidence based to address the problems identified in the epi

Eval- building on success and eliminating failures of the project

Slide 10:

2 Vital components of process are identified in the middle of the framework

Cultural Competency – to ensure the process is inclusive of every Indiana citizen

Sustainability- this process is here to stay with a focus of integrating into our community efforts
