School personnel training for the prevention of tobacco, alcohol, and other drug use: issues and outcomes.
The training of inservice school personnel in the prevention of tobacco, alcohol, and other drug use among youth is the focus of this article. The training emphasizes an interdisciplinary, youth development, school team training model, entitled "Enhancing Student Well-Being." The model includes both content and process components. The manuscript describes the model, evaluation procedures, and training issues. Particular attention is given to follow-up assessment and outcome of school-based prevention projects developed during the training and implemented during the school year. Results support the training model as having a positive impact on prevention initiatives in schools.
