Empowered communities that inspire equity and cultural preservation.

ALIANZA DE BIENESTAR - IN COCHISE COUNTY, THE ALIANZA DE BIENESTAR HARNESSES THE ENERGY OF THE EXISTING SUBSTANCE ABUSE PREVENTION EFFORTS TO CREATE A LARGER AND MORE WIDE-REACHING MOVEMENT. THROUGH SKILLED, FACILITATED COMMUNITY PLANNING, THE CONSORTIUM CREATES A CULTURALLY COMPETENT, DATA-DRIVEN COUNTYWIDE PREVENTION BLUEPRINT THAT MAPS OPPORTUNITIES FOR COLLECTIVE IMPACT ON SUBSTANCE ABUSE ISSUES AND INCREASES REGIONAL CAPACITY TO ADDRESS UNDERLYING CAUSAL FACTORS THROUGH CULTURALLY RESPONSIVE PREVENTION. ALIANZA DE BIENESTAR UTILIZES EVIDENCED BASED PRACTICES AND EFFORTS THAT ADDRESS THE LATINO RISK FACTORS AND ACKNOWLEDGE LATINO PROTECTIVE FACTORS.

SI SE PUEDE - SI SE PUEDE BUILDS COMPREHENSIVE PREVENTION, TREATMENT AND RECOVERY INFRASTRUCTURE THAT SUPPORTS THE RURAL COMMUNITY OF PINAL COUNTY, WHICH IS EXPERIENCING A DOCUMENTED AND DRAMATIC INCREASE IN SUBSTANCE ABUSE. SI SE PUEDE SUPPORTS A COMMUNITY THAT IS WITNESSING HIGHER RATES OF FEMALE INCARCERATION; CHILD REMOVAL FROM THE HOME; OUT-OF-HOME FOSTER PLACEMENT, AND PERMANENT FAMILY SEPARATION. AT THE SAME TIME, THERE IS A RISING INFLUX OF FIRST-GENERATION MEXICAN AMERICANS WHO'S CULTURAL, ETHNIC AND LANGUAGE DIFFERENCES OFTEN PREVENT THEM FROM SEEKING TREATMENT.

FAMILIA ADELANTE - THE FAMILIA ADELANTE PROGRAM TARGETS AT-RISK LATINO YOUTH AND THEIR PARENTS THROUGH A TWO-GENERATIONAL APPROACH. FAMILIA ADELANTE IS A DYNAMIC, CULTURALLY-RESPONSIVE EDUCATION-COMMUNITY PREVENTION PROGRAM THAT ADDRESSES THE RISING RATES OF SUBSTANCE ABUSE, ACCULTURATION TRAUMA, AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PROBLEMS. THE FIRST GOAL IS TO INCREASE PARENTAL AND YOUTH AWARENESS BY INCREASING EDUCATION ABOUT THE DEVASTATING RISKS AND PUBLIC HEALTH PROBLEMS CAUSED BY THE ABUSE OF ALCOHOL, TOBACCO AND OTHER DRUGS. THE SECOND GOAL OF THE PROGRAM IS TO INCREASE PARENT AND YOUTH COLLABORATION OPPORTUNITIES FOR PROSOCIAL INVOLVEMENT IN THE COMMUNITY. FAMILIA ADELANTE UTILIZES INDIGENOUS PRACTICES TO UNITE FAMILIES.
