The Health Care Authority's (HCA) Division of Behavioral Health and Recovery (DBHR) is excited to share its new strategic planning page, Strategic planning resources: How to update or write a plan for your coalition. This page can be accessed via The Athena Forum, under the "Providers" heading.
To assist you in your community planning efforts, we put together this page of resources to help you when and how you need them. Some of these resources are specific to the Community Prevention and Wellness Initiative (CPWI) and designed by HCA's DBHR staff and partners, while other resources are from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), Community Anti-Drug Coalitions of America (CADCA), or other experts in community organizing and prevention science. This information can be used by any coalition or group hoping to go upstream and prevent substance use disorder, promote mental health, and reduce related behavioral health challenges.
Please note, this page is a work in progress and will be updated with additional information and resources in the coming weeks.
