Parties Responsible for WV's SPF SIG

The WV Governor's Office is the official recipient of the SPF SIG. The Governor has directed the WV Division of Criminal Justice Services (WV DCJS) to fiscally administer the SPF SIG sub-grants to counties. The Governor has also directed the WV Prevention Resource Center (WVPRC) to coordinate the implementation of the SPF SIG in the form of planning, grant administration, training, technical assistance, monitoring and evaluation. The WV Partnership to Promote Community Well-Being (The Partnership) advises the WVPRC as it plans and implements the SPF SIG, and it advises the Governor regarding the SPF SIG sub-grants to counties. WV's primary source of funding for substance abuse prevention comes from a federal Substance Abuse Prevention & Treatment Block Grant, which is granted to a single state agency (SSA) in each state. Twenty percent of this grant must be designated for prevention. WV's SSA is the WV Division on Alcoholism & Drug Abuse (WV DADA) . The DADA sub contracts with the WVPRC to facilitate the State's substance abuse prevention system and has a representative on the Partnership.
