Guidelines for Specialty Associate Centers

The Regional Alcohol and Drug Awareness Resource (RADAR) Network Specialty Associates enhance the Specialty Center's ability to disseminate substance abuse problem prevention information and by representing their expertise at the local level.

The RADAR Network Guidelines are intended to provide each Specialty Associate Center with a set of milestones, objectives, and indicators that will assist in planning, implementing, and assessing achievement of RADAR Network goals. Failure to meet these minimum requirements will jeopardize the status of a Specialty Associate Center and its eligibility for other Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (CSAP)-funded opportunities within the RADAR Network.

The Guidelines are organized within the following areas: Specialty Center Responsibilities, Specialty Associate Criteria and Responsibilities, Benefits, Process of Becoming a Specialty Associate Center, Equipment and Facilities, and Material Acquisition Process. A final section, Schema, outlines the working relationships among all RADAR Network participants. These guidelines are operational as of May 2003.
