What is one of CSAP's Six Prevention Strategies that involves two-way communication, generally with a facilitator/educator and a group of learners?

  1. Information Dissemination

  2. Prevention Education

  3. Problem Identification and Referral

  4. Internal Assets

The correct answer is: Prevention Education

The correct choice is Prevention Education. This strategy emphasizes the importance of interactive learning and communication, where a facilitator or educator engages with a group of learners. The two-way communication aspect is crucial as it allows for the exchange of ideas, encourages questions, and facilitates a deeper understanding of prevention concepts. This interaction enhances the learning experience and supports individuals in gaining the knowledge and skills necessary to make informed decisions about behaviors related to substance use. Information Dissemination, while important, primarily focuses on the distribution of information without necessarily involving interactive communication. Problem Identification and Referral centers on recognizing issues and guiding individuals to appropriate resources, but it does not emphasize the educational element as much. Internal Assets, on the other hand, relates to developing personal strengths and resources within individuals rather than facilitating direct instructional or educational interactions.
