Specifically, presenters will share data regarding risk and protective factors and initiation of substance use, as well as suicidal ideation among full-time college students. Implications of findings for prevention efforts with this population will also be addressed, including information on strategic approaches to prevention, recommended strategies, core elements of effectiveness, and resources that are available to assist in prevention efforts.

Evidence suggests that pro-substance messages delivered via social media, such as Twitter and Facebook, may influence youth substance use. Therefore, communities face increasing pressure to monitor social media sites that focus on drug use, and to make strategic use of social media platforms to raise awareness and deliver prevention messages. Presenters will introduce communication and behavior change theories that may be applied to the development of social media messaging and campaigns, and explore with participants how these theories might inform campaign development.

CDR Aimee Williams, Program Management Officer, Office of Emergency, Office of the Secretary, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)

Caitlin Thompson, Deputy Director, Suicide Prevention, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs

Our military service members have a unique culture that requires them to be ready for long-term deployments at a moment’s notice. This has a profound impact on service members and their families. Another unique aspect of military culture is adjusting to civilian life after the military. Many service members develop significant behavioral health issues including substance abuse dependency, post-traumatic stress disorder, and suicide ideation as a result of myriad stressors that military life can produce. Due to the issues of living with a mental and substance use disorder, finding wellness can be challenging for veterans, active-duty service members, and their families. Participants will learn about SAMHSA’s partnerships with the various branches of the U.S. Armed Forces to address the behavioral health challenges facing military/vet families. Presenters will identify ways communities can provide supportive prevention strategies to assist this population in fostering a healthy quality of life that will facilitate a positive transition into the whole community.

Vice Admiral Vivek H. Murthy, M.D., M.B.A., U.S. Surgeon GeneralOffice of the Surgeon General, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services

Vice Admiral Vivek H. Murthy was confirmed on December 15, 2014, as the 19th United States Surgeon General. As “America’s Doctor,” Dr. Murthy is responsible for communicating the best available scientific information to the public regarding ways to improve personal and public health. He also oversees the operations of the U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps, which comprises approximately 6,700 uniformed health officers who serve in nearly 800 locations around the world to promote, protect, and advance the health and safety of our nation and the world.


Dr. Murthy has devoted himself to improving public health through the lens of service, clinical care, research, education, and entrepreneurship. The son of immigrants from India, Dr. Murthy discovered a love for the art of healing early in his childhood while spending time in his father’s medical clinic in Miami, FL. After attending Miami Palmetto Senior High School, he received his bachelor’s degree from Harvard University and his M.D. and M.B.A. degrees from Yale University. He completed his residency training at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School, where he later joined the faculty as an internal medicine physician and instructor. As a clinician-educator, Dr. Murthy has cared for thousands of patients and trained hundreds of residents and medical students. He regards caring for patients as the greatest privilege of his life.

In addition to clinical practice, Dr. Murthy has two decades of experience and perspective improving health in communities around the world. He co-founded VISIONS, an HIV/AIDS education program in India and the United States, which he led for eight years. As its president, he established ten chapters with hundreds of volunteers in both countries and grew the organization’s education programs to reach more than 45,000 youths. Dr. Murthy also co-founded the Swasthya project (“health and well-being” in Sanskrit), a community health partnership in rural India, to train women to be health providers and educators. During his five-year tenure with the organization, he established seed funding and helped expand research and direct care programs that reached tens of thousands of rural residents.

As a research scientist, Dr. Murthy has conducted laboratory research on vaccine development and studied the participation of women and minorities in clinical trials. His research findings have been published in Science, the Journal of the American Medical Association, and the Journal of the National Cancer Institute. Dr. Murthy is also a health care entrepreneur and innovator. He co-founded and chaired a successful software technology company, TrialNetworks, which improves research collaboration and enhances the efficiency of clinical trials around the world. Over a period of seven years, Dr. Murthy and his team took the company from conception to an international enterprise that powers dozens of clinical trials for over 50,000 patients in more than 75 countries. Dr. Murthy also served as the president of Doctors for America, a non-profit organization that comprises more than 16,000 physicians and medical students in all 50 states who work with patients and policymakers to build a high-quality, affordable health care system for all.

As a proven leader who will employ 21st century approaches and technology to modernize the role of the Surgeon General, Dr. Murthy plans to focus his efforts on building partnerships within communities and across numerous sectors of society to address the epidemics of obesity and tobacco-related disease, to reduce the stigma associated with mental illness, to improve vaccination rates, and to make prevention and health promotion the backbone of a strong and healthy America. Dr. Murthy firmly believes that our nation’s greatest asset has always been its people. Improving the health of the American people—and our neighbors around the world—will be Dr. Murthy’s highest priority as the U.S. Surgeon General.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration’s Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (CSAP) launched the Prevention Fellowship Program in 2006 in an effort to build a workforce of substance abuse professionals. The Prevention Fellowship Program has two components: a Prevention Fellowship Program and a Prevention Internship Program. During their program experience, fellows and interns focus on acquiring the skills needed for success in the fields of substance use disorder prevention and behavioral health. The fellowship and internship programs prepare fellows and interns to provide capacity-building technical assistance (to support integration of behavioral health prevention services in their state, tribe, or jurisdictions). In addition to building competencies in diverse areas of public, behavioral, and allied health practice, fellows and interns have opportunities to develop critical research, writing, evaluation, and presentation skills within a structured training program.

Since 2006, the Prevention Fellowship Program has served over 150 fellows and interns. Meanwhile, 46 states, eight jurisdictions, three national organizations, eight Drug-Free Communities grantees, and 10 Tribal organizations have supported the program by providing mentorship and field placements to fellows and interns.
