What is it?

  • The DAAPP program is a one-on-one alcohol and/or other drug prevention and education program.
  • It is not an abstinence-only or substance abuse treatment program but rather a harm-reduction approach to using alcohol and other drugs.
    • Please see the list of resources below for substance abuse treatment programs.
  • The program consists of 3 -5 sessions (One session per week; each session is 50 minutes).
  • Sessions may be scheduled face-to-face or through the telehealth platform Zoom.
  • The SASSI® (Substance Abuse Subtle Screening Inventory) and the E-Check Up for Marijuana and Alcohol are given to gain insight to help identify the probability of developing a substance dependence disorder.
