Purpose:

Research shows that many evidence-based school programs are not sustained after the demonstration period is complete. This article outlines the Welcoming Empowerment Monitoring Approach and builds on data at each school—to address school safety and reduce substance use.

Method:

The study used California Healthy Kids Survey data across 145 schools in Southern California at five points in time over an 8-year period.

Results:

From project inception through 3 years after the project completed, all manifestations of school victimization dropped and were sustained. Lifetime alcohol and marijuana use also declined for all students during the overall period assessed.

Discussion:

Schools, districts, and regions tailored interventions according to each school’s and region’s specific needs. Combinations of ground-up solutions, evidence-based programs, building internal capacity, and connecting the school to resources helped reduce victimization and substance use.

欢迎授权监控方法（WEMA）用于学校安全和减少物质使用的概念和大规模实证检验

目的：

研究表明，在示范期结束后，许多基于证据的学校课程无法持续进行。本文概述了“欢迎授权监控方法”，并以每所学校的数据为基础，以解决学校安全问题并减少毒品的使用。

方法：

这项研究使用了加利福尼亚健康儿童调查的数据，该数据在8年时间内的5个时间点对南加州的145所学校进行了调查。

结果：

从项目开始到项目完成后的三年内，所有学校受害现象都在下降并得到维持。在整个评估期间，所有学生的终生酒精和大麻使用量也有所下降。

讨论：

学校，学区和地区会根据每所学校和地区的特定需求量身定制干预措施。从根本上解决方案，基于证据的计划，建立内部能力以及将学校与资源联系起来的组合有助于减少受害和吸毒。
