Accomplishments
Many changes have occurred at NH schools that are directly attributable to the foresight and work of the NHHEAOD Committee. Some of the committee's accomplishments include:
- Education about and integration of Social Norms theory on member campuses.
- Development and administration of the NHHEATOD Survey in collaboration with the University of New Hampshire Division of Student Affairs.
- Hosting conferences on topics of concern and interest to the college communities. Recent topics have included building campus/community coalitions, trends in marijuana use, and social norms theory.
- Development of a marijuana education curriculum.
- Implementation of Prime for Life (formerly known as OCTAA) on college campuses. This is a nationally recognized substance abuse prevention program aimed at individual change and the development of a common language about risks associated with use.
- Development of comprehensive, campus-wide alcohol and other drug policies.
- Administration of surveys to assess substance abuse on New Hampshire college campuses, including the NHHEATOD Survey and the CORE Survey.
- Development of substance-free housing for students who choose to be drug-free.
- Implementation of a FIPSE consortium grant.
- Development of a Health Risks of Drug Abuse brochure.
- Development of a brochure for parents regarding substance abuse prevention and their college student.
