Substance Misuse Prevention in Virginia: Cost Savings & Impacts

OMNI Institute and the Virginia State Epidemiological Outcomes Workgroup (SEOW) created the Substance Misuse Prevention in Virginia: Cost Savings & Impacts information sheet. This information sheet provides a succinct summary of the cost savings of substance misuse prevention efforts in Virginia and how prevention funding is used throughout the state.

This information sheet was created with the intention to be shared with anyone, regardless of familiarity with public health and substance misuse prevention, and especially for policymakers interested in the potential cost savings of substance misuse prevention efforts. Please feel free to share this information sheet with anyone in your network to promote the potential impacts and cost savings of further investment in substance misuse prevention!
