SPF-SIG

What is SPF-SIG?

The Strategic Prevention Framework-State Incentive Grant (SPF-SIG) is a five-year research project funded through the federal Center for Substance Abuse Prevention that is designed to reduce underage drinking. The project is focused on 12 Washington communities, but the findings from the project will impact prevention efforts across the state.

The project emphasizes use of a five-step planning model that focuses on accurate assessments of community problems, mobilizing the community to action, developing a strategic plan, implementing evidence-based practices, and evaluating and monitoring the results.

What are the goals of SPF-SIG?

1. Prevent the onset and reduce the progression of alcohol abuse;
2. Reduce alcohol abuse-related problems in communities;
3. Build prevention capacity and infrastructure in the state and communities; and,
4. Infuse data into prevention planning decisions across the state.
