Prevention in Action

Partners in prevention from all sectors in American society are needed for the Strategy to succeed. All of us must act together, implementing the Strategic Directions and Priorities, so that all Americans can live longer and healthier at every stage of life.

National Prevention Council: Implementing the National Prevention Strategy

Learn more about how federal departments and stakeholders are implementing the National Prevention Strategy. The Federal government alone cannot create healthier communities. State, tribal, local, and territorial governments, businesses, health care, education, and community and faith-based organizations are all essential partners in this effort.

Partners: Implementing the National Prevention Strategy

Aligning and coordinating prevention efforts across a wide range of partners is central to the success of the National Prevention Strategy. Engaging partners across disciplines, sectors, and institutions can change the way communities conceptualize and solve problems, enhance implementation of innovative strategies, and improve individual and community well-being.
