The initiative will focus on implementing the CSAP-endorsed CASASTART program to provide substance abuse prevention services to African-American and Hispanic/Latino youth ages 8 to 13. The collaborative effort will also expand the Be Proud! Be Responsible! CDC-endorsed HIV prevention curriculum currently serving African-American and Hispanic/Latino youth and young adults ages 13 to 24. The initiative will be coordinated by the Rutgers University-Paterson (NJ) Minority Substance Abuse/HIV Prevention Advisory Board, which will include consumer members, and utilize numerous local resources. Community-based organizations have pledged approximately $120,000 in annual in-kind costs to this project.
