Each year, the Mid-Year Training Institute moves to a host city \u2013 this year was no exception. Last week, CADCA and a record-breaking 2,100 prevention professionals gathered in Orlando, Florida for the 17e<\/sup> annual Mid-Year Training Institute. The week was packed with training sessions, networking opportunities and dynamic speakers.<\/p>\n

Over the past few weeks, Coalitions in Action articles have featured Florida-based coalitions, highlighting the great work and outcomes from our local prevention leaders.<\/p>\n

In Orlando, the Zebra Coalition<\/a> was created to respond to meet the needs of LGBTQ+ youth, specifically around substance abuse and homelessness. \u201cThe Zebra Coalition is a very unique program comprised of service groups, government agencies, social service providers, churches, corporations, middle and high schools, colleges and universities. Through the Zebra Coalition, each of these organizations is able to aid in providing essential services for LGBTQ+ youth at risk or in need,\u201d said Heather Wilkie<\/strong>, Director. \u201cThe primary goal of the Zebra Coalition is to create and sustain culturally competent programs that directly support the LGBTQ+ youth community throughout central Florida. An ongoing objective is to provide youth education and faculty education to local schools pertaining to LGBTQ+ issues and bullying prevention and intervention.\u201d<\/p>\n

In addition to housing and food services, residents are supported by a team of professionals including counselors and housing stability case managers. Counselors provide individual and group services designed to address mental health, substance use and co-occurring disorders. The Youth Drop-In Center is located in central downtown Orlando and serves approximately 400 youth each year.<\/p>\n

In Indian River County, the Indian River, sans toxicomanie<\/a> (SAFIR) coalition implemented \u201cKnow the Law\u201d \u2013 a partnership between the school system and law enforcement. At the beginning of each school year, school resource officers provide the Know the Law classes to incoming high school freshmen. The project explains the common offenses committed by youth on a regular basis. The program is designed to make local youth and young adults aware of the laws and the consequences of breaking the law. <\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cWhen they make decisions about their behavior, they should always consider the law and think about the consequences before they act<\/em>\u00bb, <\/em>a dit Robin Dapp<\/strong>, Directeur ex\u00e9cutif.\u00a0\u201c\u2018Ignorance of the law\u2019 is never an acceptable excuse for breaking the law.\u00a0 It is important for you to know that, as a member of our society, you have rights, responsibilities and privileges that are established by law.\u00a0 Remember that your actions now will have a great impact on your future.\u00a0 You alone are responsible for your behavior, not your family or friends.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Le Orange County Drug Free Coalition<\/a> is unique in that it is funded by the Orange County government. The coalition has focused on underage drinking, implementing campaigns and initiatives such as: youth ambassador drug prevention program, alcohol literacy challenge, alcohol environment scans, alcohol literacy training, law enforcement partnerships, parent resource guide, TIPs training, and working with Mothers Against Drunk Drivers.<\/p>\n

\u00ab La toxicomanie est un probl\u00e8me \u00e0 l'\u00e9chelle de la communaut\u00e9 et nous avons besoin de strat\u00e9gies \u00e0 l'\u00e9chelle de la communaut\u00e9 pour y rem\u00e9dier, et non d'un secteur particulier de la communaut\u00e9. C'est une excellente fa\u00e7on d'inviter les gens \u00e0 la table \u00bb, a d\u00e9clar\u00e9 Carole<\/strong> Burket<\/strong>, Directeur. "Nous travaillons avec les 12 secteurs, y compris la population de la maternelle \u00e0 la 12e ann\u00e9e et entretenons une relation continue avec les coll\u00e8ges et universit\u00e9s locaux."<\/p>\n

In Broward County, Florida, the United Way of Broward Commission on Substance Abuse<\/a> is celebrating its 30-year anniversary! Since the start, the coalition along with Broward County community leaders have come together to address the public health and safety crisis of drugs and behavioral health in southern Florida. Broward County, Florida has a population of two million people and growing. Additionally, the coalition has a strong collaboration with the school system, implementing prevention programming throughout the grades. The county\u2019s demographics are unique, approximately 30 percent Hispanic, 30 percent African American, and a large population over the age of 65. Gonzalo Cadima<\/strong>, Director, noted that \u201cdiversity contributes to the patterns that we see. Being next to Miami and Palm Beach, the geographical location, influences of tourism provide a gateway for a lot of things, which puts the coalition in a unique position.\u201d<\/p>\n

The community response team addresses the opioid epidemic. The team was created because of the Flakka drug issue a few years back. As a result, consequences of Flakka, including deaths and addiction cases declined sharply in 2015. As the crisis of Flakka dissipated, the opioid epidemic started to hit the area. The same group took this on, following the Strategic Prevention Framework (SPF). The community response team has changed the role of the coalition, including how the coalition places itself within the system of care and the spectrum of prevention.<\/p>\n

Thank you, Florida coalitions, for hosting us in your beautiful city. The 18e<\/sup> annual Mid-Year Training Institute will be held in Dallas, Texas, July 2019.\u00a0<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
