The Crowd Project   

       The goal is simple: turn the crowd into the majority of teens that do not use alcohol or other drugs.

 

Welcome to the Crowd Project website, alcohol and other drug prevention resource information for our community sponsored by Stanislaus County Behavioral Health and Recovery Services (BHRS).
 

The website was originally developed to provide a resource for youth and adults. The State Incentive Grant that focused on underage and binge drinking among youth and young adults made funding possible. The grant ended in September 2007 but the website continues and has expanded to include information about programs in our community.
 

In June 2007, BHRS completed its' three-year alcohol and other drug prevention plan. Guided by a community-based planning process that prioritized problems and directed strategies, the Prevention Plan relies on the strengths of our community to address the problems of underage drinking, methamphetamines, and older adult substance abuse. A combination of strategies and specialized prevention programs provide a course of action and the responsibility BHRS shares with our partners and community to prevent substance abuse.

Education and Prevention Services is responsible for the planning, coordination, and delivery of prevention services. Funds for prevention programs in Stanislaus County are allocated through the federal Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Block Grant (SAPT).
