Definitions of Prevention
 Prevention is a pro-active process of helping
individuals, families, schools, communities
and society to develop the resources
needed to promote and maintain healthy
lifestyles.
 Prevention is a broad based and
comprehensive approach to the reduction of
a wide range of correlated at-risk behaviors.
Prevention…
Opportunities
must occur
before the
curve!
History of Approaches to
Prevention
• 1960s = What are now considered to be scare tactics.
• 1970s = Information dissemination and later in the
1970s, affective education was promoted.
• 1980s = Alternatives were promoted early and by the
end of the decade there was increasing emphasis on
comprehensive prevention approaches.
• 1990s-Present = Comprehensive approaches have
become increasingly science-based and outcomefocused.

Promotion
IOM Definition of Promotion
• Mental health promotion interventions:
– Usually targeted to the general public or a whole
population.
– Interventions aim to enhance individuals’ ability to
achieve developmentally appropriate tasks
(competence) and a positive sense of self esteem,
– mastery, well-being, and social inclusion,
– strengthen their ability to cope with adversity.
IOM Definition of Prevention
Populations
• Universal (Indirect) – Targeted to the general
public or a whole population that has not been
identified on the basis of individual risk. The
intervention is desirable for everyone in that
group. (Support population-based programs and
environmental strategies such as changing laws
and policies.)
IOM Definition of Prevention
Populations
• Universal (Direct) – Targeted to the general
public or a whole population that has not been
identified on the basis of individual risk. The
intervention is desirable for everyone in that
group.
Institute of Medicine (IOM)
Definition of Prevention
Populations
• Selective – Targeted to individuals or a
population subgroup whose risk of developing
mental or (substance abuse) disorders is
significantly higher than average. The risk may
be imminent or it may be a lifetime risk.
IOM Definition of Prevention
Populations
• Indicated – Targeted to high-risk individuals
who are identified as having minimal but
detectable signs or symptoms foreshadowing
mental, emotional, or behavioral disorder, or
biological markers indicating predisposition
for such a disorder, but who do not meet
diagnostic levels at the current time.
Promotion and Prevention
Both focus on changing common influences on the
development of children and adolescents in order to aid
them in:
• functioning well in meeting life’s tasks and
challenges
• remaining free of cognitive, emotional, and
behavioral problems that would impair their
functioning

Developmental Framework
CSAP’s Six Prevention Strategies
• Information Dissemination
• Prevention Education
• Alternative Activities
• Community-Based Processes
• Environmental Approaches
• (Early) Problem Identification and Referral
Strategic Prevention Framework
Strategic Prevention Framework
Five Steps
1. Profile population needs, resources and readiness
to address needs and gaps
2. Mobilize and/or build capacity to address needs
3. Develop a Strategic Substance Abuse Prevention
Plan
4. Implement evidence-based substance abuse
prevention programs, policies and practices
5. Monitor, evaluate, sustain and improve or replace
those that fail
CSAP’s SPF is Based on Several
Key Principles
• The term “mental, emotional, and
behavioral disorders” encompasses
mental illness and substance abuse, while
including a somewhat broader range of
concerns associated with problem
behaviors and conditions in youth.

Consistent Evidence Shows
MEB disorders should be considered
as commonplace as a fractured limb:
not inevitable but not at all unusual.
The prevalence of these disorders is
the same in young people as it is in
adults.
An implication for prevention is that
universal programs will not be wasted
on large numbers of risk-free children.
National Priorities
(1) assurance that individuals who are at risk
receive the best available evidence-based
interventions prior to the onset of a disorder
(2) the promotion of positive MEB development
for all children, youth, and young adults.
