The data compiled to produce this report is gathered to provide the state, agencies and organizations, and the community at-large with a comprehensive view of information about the trends, outcomes, and consequences associated with alcohol, tobacco, and other drug use in the region. The methodology for this report was designed to enable PRCs, DSHS, and community stakeholders to engage in long-term strategic prevention planning based on current and prospective services relative to the needs of the communities in the state. The information compiled in the RNA is utilized to build a Regional data Repository, which is utilized as a regional asset throughout the state.\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reg9prc.org\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tView All Data\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t<h3>\n\t\t\t\tView All Regional Needs Assessments Here\n\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/pbrcada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/2023-Regional-Assestment.pdf\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t2023 Report\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/pbrcada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/2022-Regional-Assestment.pdf\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t2022 Report\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/pbrcada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/2021-Regional-Assestment.pdf\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t2021 Report\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/pbrcada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/2020-Regional-Assesment.pdf\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t2020 Report\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/pbrcada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/2019-Regional-Assesment.pdf\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t2019 Report\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/pbrcada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/2018-Regional-Assesment.pdf\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t2018 Report\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/pbrcada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/2017-Regional-Assesment.pdf\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t2017 Report\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/pbrcada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/2016-Regional-Assesment.pdf\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t2016 Report\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/pbrcada.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/2015-Regional-Assesment.pdf\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t2015 Report\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prevention Resource Center Prevention Resource Centers serve as central data collection repositories and are the substance abuse prevention training liaisons for each region.
