exceptional experiences occur when we consistently meet their expectations on what we provide (the
clinical care side), while exceeding their expectations on how we provide it (the service side). Go with
Jake as he takes you on a journey, looking at some of the best practices and lessons learned from
organizations known for their world-class service, delivered consistently and seamlessly through the
eyes of their customers. In this engaging presentation, Jake will share his insights and experiences on
the secrets to to success and how you can build it within your own service area.

Environmental Prevention Strategies – Building Coalitions to Address Community Issues Impacting
Drinking and Other Drug Use
The field of prevention has expanded beyond direct contact with youth and adults. Traditionally,
methods of education and awareness have been used to reduce substance abuse. Now a focus on
coalition-building and collaboration has emerged to address broader policy issues. As a result, healthier
environments for families and communities are created and reduce access to alcohol and other drugs,
and create positive alternatives. When local agencies, policy makers, law enforcement, and CBO’s work
together the results mean improvements in the social fabric of our cities and towns. Come learn about
successful models of coalitions working with these goals in mind and how treatment and intervention
programs benefit from such efforts.
