The evaluation services include technical assistance and guidance on the five steps of the SPF Framework: Assessment, Capacity Building, Planning, Implementation, and Evaluation. The Partnerships for Success Community Evaluation Team (PFS CET) provides process and outcome evaluation services for all SPF-PFS funded community prevention Contractors as well as the PFS Management Team at DSAMH. SPF-PFS is a continuation of the work done under the Strategic Prevention Framework – State Incentive Grant (SPF-SIG) (2009-2015) and the goals of the SPF-PFS initiative are to provide funding to the State in order to: (1) Prevent onset and reduce the progression of substance abuse, including childhood and underage drinking and prescription drug abuse (2) Reduce substance abuse-related problems and (3) Build prevention capacity and infrastructure at the state and community level. Through collaboration, states and their PFS-funded communities of high need can overcome challenges associated with substance misuse. PFS is based on the premise that changes at the community level will lead to measurable changes at the state level. They do this by helping grantees leverage and realign statewide funding streams for prevention. SPF-PFS grant programs aim to reduce substance misuse and strengthen prevention capacity at the state, tribe, and jurisdiction levels.
