ARPA Grantee Information

New Grantee Resource: Primary Prevention Activity & Training Resource Hub. The Resource Hub serves as a tool to help grantees and prevention partners participate in ODP’s substance use prevention campaigns and related trainings, events, and activities. The Resource Hub includes an Activity Calendar that shows trainings and initiatives for the entire grant year so grantees can see what opportunities they want to participate in and plan in advance. This is a living resource that will continue to be updated and expanded throughout the year.

NO SFY2025 ARPA GRANTEES ARE IMPLEMENTING PROGRAMMING THAT REQUIRES THE USE OF PROGRAM PARTICIPANT SURVEYS.

Grantees providing direct curriculum-based prevention education (e.g., LifeSkills, Positive Action, Strengthening Families) are required to conduct participant surveys after the completion of each program cohort. These surveys are used to inform the overall grant-funded program evaluation.

When implementing evidence-based programs and practices, it is important to consider fidelity and adaptation.

Fidelity: The degree to which a program or practice is implemented as intended.
Adaptation: Describes how much, and in which ways, a program or practice is changed to meet local circumstances.

Evidence-based programs and practices are defined as such because they consistently achieve positive outcomes. The greater the fidelity to the original program design, the more likely the program will reproduce positive results. While customizing a program to better reflect the attitudes, beliefs, experiences, and values of a focus population can increase its cultural relevance, it is important to keep in mind that such adaptations may compromise program effectiveness.
