Nutrition as Prevention: Part 2

PART 2: From Protective Factors to Prevention Practice

How can prevention leaders move from recognizing the connection between nutrition and substance misuse prevention to identifying practical opportunities within the systems and programs they already lead?

Part 2 of this interactive series applies a food and nutrition lens to the Strategic Prevention Framework (SPF). Participants will explore opportunities across assessment, capacity, planning, implementation, and evaluation and consider how existing food and nutrition programs, partners, and resources may support prevention priorities.

The session will also examine examples of current prevention funding and programming to help participants identify potential connections among nutrition, risk and protective factors, and existing prevention goals. Through a guided working session, participants will apply the framework to a program, grant, strategy, or prevention priority relevant to their own work.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

By the end of the session, participants will be able to:

  1. Apply a food and nutrition lens across the five steps of the Strategic Prevention Framework.

  2. Identify potential food, nutrition, and community partners and resources that may strengthen existing prevention strategies.

  3. Develop one practical opportunity for incorporating food or nutrition into an existing prevention program, priority, partnership, or planning process.
