The Council on Substance Abuse-National Council on Alcohol and Drug Dependence proposes to host a 2-day statewide 2007 Methamphetamine Summit involving each of Alabama's 67 counties and 6 urban areas to accomplish the following purposes with regard to reduction of methamphetamine use, production, and importation: 1) Share the latest information of evidence-based, successful strategies; 2) Address cultural aspects of and improve participants' cultural competence; 3) Develop priorities to guide regional and local plans to engage Alabama communities; and 4) Build the foundation for a coordinated statewide system in Alabama. They plan to model the Alabama Methamphetamine Summit after the Regional Methamphetamine Summit sponsored by ONDCP and NAMSDL in July 2006 in Birmingham. The conference will serve as a key next step to mobilize intrastate regions and counties to develop comprehensive plans to address methamphetamine use, production, and importation.

Aletheia House, a community-based nonprofit organization, will plan integrated HIV and substance abuse prevention services for African-American men, ages 20 to 34, who are returning to Jefferson County, Alabama, from prison. One in fifteen of Alabama's African-American men in the age group is incarcerated.
In Alabama, African-American men have the highest rate of HIV infection with a rate (68.7 per 100,000) which is six times higher than the infection rate of white men (11.1 per 100,000). Men returning from prison are at a very high risk for HIV infection and/or substance abuse, especially since a majority of Alabama's inmates are substance abusers.
The project will use an advisory committee that will include African-American ex-offenders to develop services that are effective and culturally relevant to the target population. Planning activities will include focus groups, interviews with experts, assessment surveys, literature reviews, interviews with offenders inside and outside prison, and visits to successful prevention programs in similar communities. The final stage of the planning process will be the development of a strategic implementation plan that will be submitted to CSAP and other funding sources.
