Coalitions need to stay current on the emerging drug trends and organizational management breakthroughs facing the substance abuse prevention field. The free publication, Investigaci\u00f3n en acci\u00f3n<\/em>, developed by CADCA\u2019s National Coalition Institute, examines current research that may be relevant to coalitions\u2019 everyday scientists.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Esta edici\u00f3n de Investigaci\u00f3n en acci\u00f3n<\/em> focuses on a recent study published in the Journal of Prevention Science. The research team concluded that high levels of coalition functionality were associated with sustaining Evidence Based Programs (EBP\u2019s). The study categorized coalitions into three levels: lower level, same level, and high level and found that coalitions demonstrating high levels of functioning were more likely to be involved with long term sustainability of EBP\u2019s in their community. High level of functioning meant having greater outreach and effectiveness, while low levels of functionality means having less impact on the community. This study provides useful suggestions to coalitions that are supporting evidence based programs.<\/p>\n

From the perspective of Dr. Brittany Cooper, the lead researcher on the study, the key factors that determined sustainability of Evidence Based Programs beyond initial seed funding were (1) organizational context, capacity and support; (2) characteristics of the implementers and program being implemented; (3) technical assistance, training, and support for the program\u2019s implementation; (4) sustainability planning; and (5) the social, political, and financial context of the larger community.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe definition of a high functioning coalition is one that has a strong collective mission and vision, with strong leadership and relationships, and mutually-established priorities. And, connections to a high functioning coalition predicted successful program sustainability,\u201d Dr. Cooper said. \u201cFurther, alignment between coalition and program goals suggests a greater chance for successful program sustainability.\u201d<\/p>\n

In conclusion, programs that share results with a greater number of key stakeholders are more likely to achieve sustainability. Coalitions provide opportunities to network with a diverse group of stakeholders, assist with communicating results, monitor implementation, help with securing funding, and provide support with recruitment.<\/p>\n

Julian Taylor, CADCA\u2019s CSAP Prevention Fellow, sat down with Marsha Middleton, program coordinator for the Ward 5 Drug Free Coalition, in Washington D.C. to discuss her thoughts on how this research could apply to her coalition\u2019s work. \u00a0<\/p>\n

A summary of Middleton\u2019s takeaways include:
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0The sustainability of a program is dependent upon the buy-in of the implementer.
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Programs that are more flexible and can be modified to fit the needs of the participants and goals and mission of the collaborating agencies have a greater chance of sustainability.
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Evidenced-based programs should provide real outcomes that address specific needs in the community.
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0In order to secure sustainability, you must plan for it between the implementer and collaborating organizations.<\/p>\n

\u201cBecause coalitions do not implement programs, this information can be used in working with community stakeholders who are currently implementing EBP. \u00a0This information can serve as a helpful tool in understanding the importance of developing a sustainability plan at the onset of a grant,\u201d Middleton concluded. \u201cSustainability is critical with all DFC Coalitions. These findings suggest that as a Coalition leader, a sustainability plan should be an ongoing process.\u201d \u00a0<\/p>\n
