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.

Builds on past and current prevention efforts to chart new directions for Arizona's prevention programs. It includes information on best practices to reach the new strategic goals. It sets priorities for behavioral health prevention initiatives and encourages closer collaboration and coordination to stretch our limited health care dollars. Perhaps most important, it highlights the essential role of every individual as a partner and a resource for community-wide prevention efforts.

A serial listing of the publications of the Arizona Department of Mineral Resources (1939-1984) and the Arizona Department of Mines and Mineral Resources (1984-August 1990). The name change in 1984, to more accurately reflect the Department’s involvement with mining, did not affect the function or the procedures of the Department, so the publications have not been segregated.
