The SPF-PFS-Communities/Tribes program is intended to build prevention capacity throughout communities and tribes and to strengthen the capacity of local community prevention providers.

The purpose of this program is to:

• Help prevent and reduce the initiation and progression of substance use and its related problems by supporting the development and delivery of community-based substance use prevention services that strengthen protective factors, reduce risk factors, build resilience, and promote well-being.
• Expand and strengthen the capacity of state and local community prevention providers serving communities and tribes and implement evidence-based, evidence-informed, and community-defined evidence-based prevention strategies.
