The Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (CSAP) proposes to award a

three-year cost-reimbursement, level-of-effort type contract to

establish a National Resource Center for the Prevention of Alcohol,

Tobacco and Other Drug Abuse in Women.  This procurement will assist

CSAP to continue the services of the CSAP National Resource Center

for the Prevention of Perinatal Abuse of Alcohol and Other Drugs

(Lewin Contract No. 277-91-3004).  Through the establishment of a

CSAP National Resource Center for the Prevention of Alcohol, Tobacco,

and Other Drug (ATOD) Abuse in Women, CSAP seeks to expand its effort

to provide state-of-the-art information regarding our understanding

of the public health issues of women as it relates to ATOD abuse

prevention.  This contract will assist CSAP in achieving its mission

by serving as the Nation's focal point for policy orientation,

disseminating new research information, information and referral

services, training services, systems design, technical assistance,

and evaluation findings for programs targeting ATOD abuse prevention

in women, including pregnant and parenting women, their children,

female adolescents, and women in life crisis at risk of ATOD abuse,

including prescription drugs.  The CSAP National Resource Center for

the Prevention of Alcohol, Tobacco and Other Drug Abuse in Women has

four main objectives:  (1) study and develop programs relevant to the

prevention, intervention, and follow-up of substance use in the

target population; (2) maintain a network of experts to serve as an

information source; (3) provide training experiences for

interdisciplinary teams; and (4) maintain a data base for monitoring

and evaluating the activities of the CSAP National Resource Center.

Services to be provided under this procurement include: the promotion

of the CSAP National Resource Center's services, information

technology systems and services; national conferences, issue fora,

resource packages, a report on the field, community team training

institutes, a national information and referral service, and special

disciplinary training programs.  It is estimated that 36 months will

be required for this project.  However, two separate one-year

extension options are also included; if both are exercised the

contract will be of five years duration.  In addition, a third option

is included to increase the number of interdisciplinary teams

trained.
