Description
The Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction’s AODA Supplemental Grant supports implementation or expansion of district-wide, comprehensive kindergarten-through-grade-12 programs to prevent and reduce alcohol and other drug abuse among minors. The program combines prevention for students at risk of future substance-use problems with intervention for students already experiencing problems, within a coordinated school health approach.
Projects may address curriculum and instruction, school policy, student programs, staff development, parent and community education, community service partnerships, and program assessment. Applicants should connect proposed activities to existing AODA services and emphasize reaching the largest possible number of students. Funding priorities include completed needs assessments, identified evidence-based strategies, and readiness for implementation. Research-based programs and promising practices are considered, with geographic distribution also informing awards.
