This effort was funded with seed money from the Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (CSAP), Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) through a cooperative agreement with the South Carolina Governor’s Office. The Greenville ECHO Rx Coalition works closely with the South Carolina Department of Alcohol and Drug Abuse Services (DAODAS) and uses a comprehensive strategic plan addressing the 5 steps of the strategic prevention framework (assessment, capacity, planning, implementation, and evaluation). ECHO Rx Greenville has worked diligently to build a strong coalition of over 40 community leaders who have investigated the local problems, contributing factors, and solutions regarding Opioid abuse/misuse. The Coalition has already created linkages and collaboration among system and partner agencies throughout the county, conducted comprehensive county needs and resources assessment, and identified evidence-based interventions that will produce population level change in South Carolina.
