Description: This SFY25 American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) grant application is to be used by eligible applicants seeking funding from the Idaho Office of Drug Policy (ODP) to enhance Idaho’s primary prevention infrastructure through the implementation of evidence-based programs and strategies to mitigate the negative effects of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and improve substance misuse outcomes among Idaho’s adults – including young adults (ages 18-25), adults (ages 26-44), middle-age adults (ages 45-64), and older adults (ages 65 and older).
