IOWA PARTNERSHIP FOR SUCCESS APPLICATION OVERVIEW

Reminders  Not all details have been finalized and could change in the coming months  This presentation is a broad overview  Questions? Contact Julie Hibben

PFS Grant Overview  Designed to address two of the nation’s top substance abuse prevention priorities:  1) underage drinking among persons aged 12 to 20; and  2) prescription drug misuse and abuse among persons aged 12 to 25 .  Bring the SPF process to scale  Continue to work started through SPF SIG

PFS Grant Overview  States, tribes and territories that have completed a SPF SIG were eligible to apply  Iowa applied for $1.626 million per year for 5 years

Iowa’s PFS priority  Due to less funding, only one priority issue was listed in the application  Reducing underage drinking with 12-20 year olds, with a focus on youth binge drinking

Iowa’s PFS Objective  Reduce the rate of underage alcohol use and binge drinking by at least 5% in 90% of the sub-recipient counties.

Iowa’s PFS Structure  IPFS Advisory Council  State Epidemiological Workgroup (SEW)  Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) Workgroup  Capacity Coach system  Six coaches  Selected through an RFP process

Subrecipient Selection Process  Counties were identified for funding based on the following:  Population  Racial and Ethnic diversity (federal race and ethnicity codes)  Education Level (high school graduation, college)  Economic Status (median household income, poverty rate)  Portion of population under age 18  Crime rate per 100,000  8th grade current alcohol use rate  8th grade binge drinking rate  11th grade current alcohol use rate  11th grade binge drinking rate

Subrecipient Selection Process  Counties were ranked on the indicators from highest to lowest rates  County population size was considered  Averaged rankings across all indicators

Subrecipient Selection process List of Identified Highest Need Counties  1. Allamakee 91.5  9. Jackson 76.9  2. Chickasaw 84.4  10. Van Buren 74.6  3. Appanoose 84.3  11. Woodbury 73.4  4.

Funding Process  12 “high need” counties will be funded but 15 will be eligible to apply  RFP process to measure capacity  Funded counties will need to “quickly build capacity and enhance their community-level infrastructures using the SPF process”

Funded Services  Utilizing the SPF through a tiered process  At least three Environmental strategies addressing underage drinking  Strategies that were successful within the SPF SIG  EBP Workgroup will help decide  At least one Individual strategy  Strategies that are effective, not cost prohibitive  EBP Workgroup will help decide
