Albuquerque-Bernalillo County (ABC) Prevent
The ABC Prevent Project, a 5 year SAMHSA grant to reduce underage drinking (ages 9-20) & prescription painkiller misuse (ages 12-25), is being conducted in Bernalillo County in partnership with Pacific Institute Research & Evaluation (PIRE). Coalition-driven, evidence-based interventions will address community-level contributing factors in the misuse of these substances while maintaining a core focus on addressing related disparities to health equity. ABC Prevent is a project within the Opioid Accountability Initiative (OAI)
