Identifying and Selecting Evidence-Based Interventions

By U.S. Department of Health and Human Services

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) envisions "a life in the community for everyone" and has as its mission "building resilience and facilitating recovery." SAMHSA strives to achieve its mission through programs supported by three goals: accountability, capacity, and effectiveness. The Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (CSAP) helps to create healthy communities. SAMHSA/CSAP helps States to provide resources and assistance to communities so that communities, in turn, can prevent and reduce substance abuse and related problems. SAMHSA/CSAP also provides training, technical assistance, and funds to strengthen the State prevention systems that serve local communities. SAMHSA/CSAP works with States to identify programs, policies, and practices that are known to be effective in preventing and reducing substance abuse and related problems.
