Updated for 2024: “Prevention With Purpose”

02/08/2024

The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has revised Prevention With Purpose: A Strategic Planning Guide for Preventing Drug Misuse Among College Students with new information! The guide provides a road map for college- and university-based prevention professionals to collaborate with a wide range of stakeholders in addressing campus-wide drug misuse issues.

In this 2024 edition of the guide—first published in 2020—you will find updated data, real-life stories from campus prevention professionals focused on unique or innovative approaches to SAMHSA’s Strategic Prevention Framework (SPF), ways to consider cultural factors in each step of the SPF, and strategies for success during times of disruption to campus life.
