Dear Mr. Sanders:
Through a partnership with the Department of Public Instruction, the 12 cooperative educational service agencies (CESAs) have, for over ten years, provided quality support services to school districts and school-community partnerships in preventing alcohol and other drug abuse (AODA) and related youth risk behaviors. This partnership, the Wisconsin Alcohol, Tobacco and Other Drug Education Network, was formed as a strong component of DPI's overall strategy to prevent substance abuse.
As part of our responsibility to evaluate department-administered grant programs, DPI recently undertook a survey of users of the support services to determine:
A970
* the extent to which these services are used by school districts and school-community partnerships,
* the level of satisfaction among school district coordinators and school-community partnership council chairs with those services, and
* the need for additional or substitute services.
Through telephone interviews developed, administered, and analyzed by the UW Extension Survey Research Laboratory, DPI and CESAs were provided with summary results that demonstrate the value of the services and also point to the need for development and fine-tuning. Enclosed is an executive summary of those results.
If you have questions or comments regarding the report, please contact Douglas White, Team Leader, Student Services/Prevention and Wellness Team, at 608-266-5198 or
