PiP 2024

The presentation will begin with a brief description of the work and scope of TN Prevention Network Agencies and Substance Use Prevention Coalitions. Details will include what their grant requirements include, target populations served and other relevant program information. From there Ridgeview’s TPN program will explain how we work together with Anderson County Anti-Drug Coalition and the Roane County Anti-Drug Coalition. Examples will include their staff presenting during our TPN student groups at schools and TPN staff participating on their vaping panel with students and families and other community events (i.e., Prom Promise).

Room will be set up with signs on tables for each of the regions and participants will be asked to sit at the table of the region they serve. During this part of the presentation groups will be asked to discuss with their table mates how TPN and Coalitions can best work together to meet the needs of their community. Ideas will then be listed on flip charts and shared with the group. Participants will be encouraged to share contact information and for TPN and Coalitions to share one activity they plan to collaborate on.
