Welcome to
the Substance Abuse Prevention Program and
Coalition!
About Us
The Substance Abuse Prevention Program operates
through the Community Resource Center of Johnson
County and is funded by the Wyoming Department
of Health, Mental Health and Substance Abuse
Division. The program was structured around a
strategic prevention framework first introduced
in the State Incentive Grant and later in the
present Wyoming Prevention Framework Community
Grant.
