Proposed goals and measurable objectives.

Goals Measurable objectives
Increase the capacity of primary care providers to provide SBIRTa to youth aged 9-20 years to reduce alcohol and opioid use and provide treatment or referral for those currently using these substances. By the end of 2024, our team will have trained 20% of primary care providers in the 10-county catchment through Project ECHOb (n=120). This enables approximately 57,600 youth to be served by SBIRT over the proposed project timeline.
Increase the capacity of schools to provide SBIRT to youth aged 9-20 years to reduce alcohol use and opioid use and provide treatment and, if necessary, referral for those currently using these substances. By the end of 2024, our team will have trained at least 20 school nurses within the 10-county catchment through Project ECHO.
Increase alcohol and substance use prevention resources and programs for primary care clinics and schools to distribute to youth and families. By the end of 2024, at least 50% of school buildings and primary care clinics will have alcohol/substance use prevention toolkits available for youth and families.
