Ulster Prevention Council wants to increase the effectiveness of prevention programs throughout Ulster County by procuring Evidence- Based Practices (EBPs) for community coalitions. These practices have been recognized and approved by the NYS Office of Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Services (OASAS) as having a positive impact on reducing substance abuse and related factors associated with substance abuse, such as poor academic achievement, bullying, and poor relationships/connections with their families, peers, schools and/ or the community at large. Links will take you to an overview of the program, a link to a website, and contact information. |  See how to apply to UPC for funding to support any of these evidence-based practices here. | |
