Building Effective Coalitions
SAMHSA's Strategic Prevention Framework

The Strategic Prevention Framework (SPF) was created by the federal Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) to assist coalitions in developing the infrastructure needed for community-based, public health approaches leading to effective and sustainable reductions in alcohol, tobacco and other drug use and abuse.

The National Coalition Institute's training opportunities are designed to help coalitions develop programs using the elements of the SPF. For an overview of our programs, take a look at the "Being an Effective Coalition" PowerPoint (PDF format) and the Note Taking Guide from the November 29-30, 2005 training in Washington, D.C. For more information on training opportunities, go to our Training information page.
