The PRI is generally following the Strategic Prevention Framework as the overall planning
framework for this process. It is expected that all tasks associated with PRI will be conducted in
a culturally competent manner. This model is based on categorization of task by subjects and
does not indicate sequence to follow. This is not expected to be linear process.
Primary sources of information used in developing Task Categories: Communities That Care, CADCA, Coalitions and
Partnerships in Community Health (Frances Dunn Butterfoss), DBHR, preliminary evaluation information from Washington
and national SPF-SIG project, SAMSHA/CSA.

What is a Coalition?
A formal arrangement for cooperation and collaboration between groups or sectors of a
community, in which each group retains its identity, but all agree to work together toward a
common goal of building a safe, healthy, and drug free community.
Who is a Coalition?
•
•
•
•
Members (Sector Representatives) are local key players who represent and can function on behalf of their
respective sector constituents to contribute to carrying out planning and strategies for the local community.
Members (Sector Representatives) act within their own sphere of influence thus enlarging the coalition’s
ability to create needed change and implement multiple strategies.
New members are invited to join in an effort to enlarge the coalition's sphere of influence and to gain
needed capacity to address additional root causes
Coalition staff assists with support for planning, problem solving and information management (evaluation,
reporting, etc.).
