Managing Your OSAP Contract

The Office of Substance Abuse Prevention (OSAP) receives money to fund communities from both federal and state governments. Both of these funding sources have requirements that OSAP must adhere to in order to stay in compliance and maintain funding for the entire state of New Mexico. These requirements trickle down to each OSAP provider into contracts and Scopes of Work (SOW). With decreases in funding availability, it is crucial to manage your OSAP contract and ensure your SOW is fully being met. This training will assist in successfully managing an OSAP contract using proven Project Management tools and techniques. Participants will review tips and practices for: the management plan; budgeting; how to work with OSAP when a strategy isn’t working and suggesting a change in SOW; and developing an archiving process for the repository of project’s institutional documents. Note: This training is open only to OSAP providers.

Implementing Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services (CLAS) in Your Community

Implementing effective substance use prevention services requires knowledge and skill in many areas beyond the strategy or program itself. Two important areas are cultural appropriateness and the use of familiar and inclusive language. Strategies and programs need to resonate with the people participating so the skills, knowledge, perceptions, awareness, and attitudes of these services can transfer into their lives. Providing appropriate cultural and linguistic prevention services requires self-awareness and intentional planning. This training provides participants an introduction to concepts like culture, cultural identity, bias, intersectionality, stereotypes, and microaggressions. Then national standards for culturally and linguistically appropriate services (CLAS) will be reviewed and used to identify specific examples of how the standards are currently being used in your prevention work. Finally, we will explore how culturally relevant communication and language assistance could be added into existing services.
