2005 Framework for Prevention in Behavioral Health

The 2005 "Framework for Prevention in Behavioral Health" is an update of a document created in 1996 by the Arizona Department of Health Services, Division of Behavioral Health Services. The original "Framework for Behavioral Health" was used by many prevention providers as a reference, guide, and training tool. This revised Framework establishes key directions for Division of Behavioral Health Services prevention programs for the years 2005 through 2011. The purpose of the "2005 Framework for Prevention in Behavioral Health" is to establish clear guidelines and expectations for Tribal and Regional Behavioral Health Authorities, their contracted prevention providers, and Tribal Contractors. This document is not intended to be a substitute for training regarding implementation of prevention programs.
