The
Higher Education Center's purpose is to help college and community
leaders develop, implement, and evaluate programs and policies
to reduce student problems related to alcohol and other
drug use and interpersonal violence. The Center favors a comprehensive
approach to prevention. Central to this approach is a mix of environmental
management strategies to address the institutional,
community, and public policy factors that contribute to these problems. The
Center supports the development of a prevention infrastructure,
primarily by facilitating the work of statewide prevention initiatives and campus-community
coalitions. The Center provides trainings, technical assistance,
and publications to support these efforts. The Center also
promotes innovative program development to improve student education,
campus-based media campaigns (including social norms campaigns), early
intervention, treatment, and recovery strategies,
and enforcement.
