The Bridging Prevention and Recovery (BPR) Program helps communities understand, develop, and apply approaches using hands-on tools to unite towards common community goals that prevent substance misuse and promote recovery.
It guides communities in developing a clear and supported path for youth prevention and recovery friendly supports by providing a road map to promote wellness and resiliency and assists communities with recovering from the crushing impacts of substance use disorder.
We are currently recruiting for communities who want to join our third cohort beginning in February 2021. Please contact us at community@safeproject.us for further information.
“You bridged the conversation between folks who often work on different ends of the spectrum. Prevention and recovery are the best allies for one another. That was something that drove through in all of this process.” – BPR Participant
