Coalition Institute's Primer Series

The Institute's Primer Series is aimed at providing guidelines for coalitions navigating the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration’s Strategic Prevention Framework (SPF). Each primer is designed to stand alone and work with the others in the series. While the series focuses on the process organized through the SPF, the elements can be applied by any community coalition.

Although not a part of the SPF, Capturing the Four Core Measures addresses a requirement of all Drug-Free Communities Support Program grantees. The publication serves as an addendum to the Primer Series.

If you have questions on coalition development through the SPF or other coalition issues, contact Shannon Weatherly, the Institute's Technical Assistance Manager, at sweatherly@cadca.org or 800-542-2322, ext. 240.
