Alabama Department of Mental Health, Division of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services (AL DMHSAS) was awarded Block Grant funding from SAMHSA to support substance abuse and mental health prevention and treatment services. PIRE is contracted to provide evaluation services to AL DMHSAS related to the prevention portion of the SABG which includes the delivery of evidence-based individual, community, and environmental strategies to address substance abuse prevention throughout the State. The evaluation uses a multi-method approach to determine if local and state efforts lead to changes in substance misuse and risk and protective factors associated with substance misuse.
