Prevention Today For A Better Tomorrow
The Prevention Resource Center aims to provide information and statistics on substance abuse in the Texas Health and Human Services (HHSC) region 7. Every year we put out numerous PSAs aimed at reducing marijuana use, underage alcohol use, and prescription pill abuse. We have a member of our team go out and perform tobacco law compliance checks with tobacco retailers across the region. We also put out a Regional Needs Assessment which synthesizes various statistics about alcohol abuse, substance abuse, risk factors, and protective factors in the region.
HHSC region 7 includes: Bastrop, Bell, Blanco, Bosque, Brazos, Burleson, Burnet, Caldwell, Coryell, Falls, Fayette, Freestone, Grimes, Hamilton, Hays, Hill, Lampasas, Lee, Leon, Limestone, Llano, Madison, McLennan, Milam, Mills, Robertson, San Saba, Travis, Washington, Williamson.
For other PRCs, see the Texas HHS PRC website.
