Mission and programs · 2022

• PROJECT SUCCESS IS AN ALCOHOL AND OTHER-DRUG PREVENTION/EARLY INTERVENTION PROGRAM IMPLEMENTED IN WESTCHESTER COUNTY HIGH SCHOOLS AND JUNIOR HIGH/MIDDLE SCHOOLS, THROUGH FUNDING FROM THE NEW YORK STATE OFFICE OF ADDICTION SERVICES AND SUPPORTS (OASAS) AND THE PARTICIPATING SCHOOLS. DURING THE SCHOOL YEAR, APPROXIMATELY 6,198 MIDDLE AND HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS RECEIVED PREVENTION COUNSELING AND EDUCATION PROGRAM SERVICES. THOUSANDS MORE PARTICIPATED OR WERE EXPOSED TO SCHOOL-WIDE PREVENTION ACTIVITIES. THE GOALS OF THE PROGRAM ARE TO PREVENT STUDENTS FROM USING ALCOHOL AND OTHER DRUGS, TO INCREASE SCHOOL AND COMMUNITY AWARENESS ABOUT THE DANGERS OF ADOLESCENT SUBSTANCE USE, TO ELIMINATE ALCOHOL AND OTHER DRUG USE AMONG THOSE WHO ARE USING BY EDUCATING THEM ABOUT THE NEGATIVE CONSEQUENCES OF THEIR USE, AND TO EMPOWER NON-USING ADOLESCENTS TO STRENGTHEN THE FACTORS THAT PROTECT AGAINST THE RISKS OF SUBSTANCE USE. IN 2022-2023 95% OF STUDENTS WHO PARTICIPATED IN COUNSELING INCREASED OR MAINTAINED THEIR PERCEPTION OF THE RISK OF HARMFULNESS OF ALCOHOL AND OTHER DRUGS. THE PROGRAM IS RECOGNIZED AS ONE OF THE FEW PREVENTION/EARLY INTERVENTION PROGRAMS THAT HAS BEEN ABLE TO DOCUMENT A POSITIVE IMPACT ON REDUCING ALCOHOL AND DRUG USE AMONG HIGH RISK STUDENTS IN HIGH SCHOOLS. NINETY EIGHT PERCENT (98%) OF STUDENTS SEEN FOUR OR MORE TIMES IN INDIVIDUAL OR GROUP SESSIONS IN 2022-2023 REDUCED THE FREQUENCY OF ALCOHOL OR MARIJUANA USE (OR REMAINED ABSTINENT) DURING THE LAST 30 DAYS AFTER PROGRAM PARTICIPATION.PROJECT SUCCESS IS BEING REPLICATED IN NINETEEN STATES, AND FOURTEEN OTHER COUNTIES IN NEW YORK STATE. THE WESTCHESTER STUDENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (SAP) WAS ADAPTED FOR RESIDENTIAL FACILITIES (RSAP) AND IN 1999 WAS DESIGNATED BY THE SUBSTANCE ABUSE AND MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES ADMINISTRATION (SAMHSA) CENTER FOR SUBSTANCE ABUSE PREVENTION (CSAP) AS AN EXEMPLARY PROGRAM. THE SAP WAS MODIFIED TO INCORPORATE ADDITIONAL PREVENTION PROGRAM COMPONENTS AND NAMED PROJECT SUCCESS AND RECEIVED THE SAME DESIGNATION IN 2000. BOTH RSAP AND PROJECT SUCCESS ARE HIGHLY RATED PROGRAMS ON SAMHSA'S FORMER NATIONAL REGISTRY OF EVIDENCE BASED PROGRAMS AND PRACTICES. PROJECT SUCCESS WAS ONE OF THE HIGHEST RATED SUBSTANCE USE PREVENTION PROGRAMS ON THE PEW MACARTHUR RESULTS FIRST CLEARINGHOUSE.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
