PROJECT SUCCESS IS AN ALCOHOL AND OTHER-DRUG PREVENTION/EARLY INTERVENTION PROGRAM IMPLEMENTED IN WESTCHESTER COUNTY HIGH SCHOOLS AND JUNIOR HIGH/MIDDLE SCHOOLS, THROUGH FUNDING FROM THE NEW YORK STATE OFFICE OF ADDICTION SERVICES AND SUPPORTS (OASAS) AND THE PARTICIPATING SCHOOLS. DURING THE 2021-2022 SCHOOL YEAR, APPROXIMATELY 6,198 MIDDLE AND HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS RECEIVED PREVENTION COUNSELING AND EDUCATION PROGRAM SERVICES. THOUSANDS MORE PARTICIPATED OR WERE EXPOSED TO SCHOOL-WIDE PREVENTION ACTIVITIES. THE GOALS OF THE PROGRAM ARE TO PREVENT STUDENTS FROM USING ALCOHOL AND OTHER DRUGS, TO INCREASE SCHOOL AND COMMUNITY AWARENESS ABOUT THE DANGERS OF ADOLESCENT SUBSTANCE USE, TO ELIMINATE ALCOHOL AND OTHER DRUG USE AMONG THOSE WHO ARE USING BY EDUCATING THEM ABOUT THE NEGATIVE CONSEQUENCES OF THEIR USE, AND TO EMPOWER NON-USING ADOLESCENTS TO STRENGTHEN THE FACTORS THAT PROTECT AGAINST THE RISKS OF SUBSTANCE USE. IN 2021-2022, 95% OF STUDENTS WHO PARTICIPATED IN COUNSELING INCREASED OR MAINTAINED THEIR PERCEPTION OF THE RISK OF HARMFULNESS OF ALCOHOL AND OTHER DRUGS. THE PROGRAM IS RECOGNIZED AS ONE OF THE FEW PREVENTION/EARLY INTERVENTION PROGRAMS THAT HAS BEEN ABLE TO DOCUMENT A POSITIVE IMPACT ON REDUCING ALCOHOL AND DRUG USE AMONG HIGH RISK STUDENTS IN HIGH SCHOOLS. NINETY EIGHT PERCENT (98%) OF STUDENTS SEEN FOUR OR MORE TIMES IN INDIVIDUAL OR GROUP SESSIONS IN 2021-2022 REDUCED THE FREQUENCY OF ALCOHOL OR MARIJUANA USE (OR REMAINED ABSTINENT) DURING THE LAST 30 DAYS AFTER PROGRAM PARTICIPATION.PROJECT SUCCESS IS BEING REPLICATED IN NINETEEN STATES, AND FOURTEEN OTHER COUNTIES IN NEW YORK STATE.

THE SAP WAS MODIFIED TO INCORPORATE ADDITIONAL PREVENTION PROGRAM COMPONENTS AND NAMED PROJECT SUCCESS AND RECEIVED THE SAME DESIGNATION IN 2000. BOTH RSAP AND PROJECT SUCCESS ARE HIGHLY RATED PROGRAMS ON SAMHSA'S FORMER NATIONAL REGISTRY OF EVIDENCE BASED PROGRAMS AND PRACTICES. PROJECT SUCCESS WAS ONE OF THE HIGHEST RATED SUBSTANCE USE PREVENTION PROGRAMS ON THE PEW MACARTHUR RESULTS FIRST CLEARINGHOUSE.
