ASAP: Supporting Single Soldiers Through Substance Misuse Prevention
The Army Substance Abuse Program is committed to promoting the health and readiness of individual Soldiers as well as units through substance misuse prevention and by fostering a culture of resilience and accountability.
Through a variety of educational initiatives, such as targeted training sessions and interactive workshops, ASAP equips Soldiers and leaders with the knowledge and tools to address substance misuse proactively. All program resources are tailored to address the unique challenges that the military lifestyle presents.
During training sessions participants learn about the early warning signs of substance misuse and the negative effects that drugs and alcohol can have on Soldiers’ health, relationships and ability to stay ever ready for duty. But equally important, they learn strategies to mitigate risks. Leaders are taught to identify and support Soldiers who may be struggling with substance misuse.
Individual Soldiers who need additional support can turn to the Substance Use Disorder Clinical Care Program, which offers assessments, therapy and recovery plans designed to meet each person’s needs. Licensed professionals work closely with clients to help them address both the causes and effects of substance misuse.
By combining education, prevention and treatment, ASAP and the Substance Use Disorder Clinical Care Program work together to support Soldiers, removing the stigma around seeking care and creating an environment where people feel safe getting it.
Through targeted prevention efforts and accessible treatment options, ASAP is committed to building a stronger, healthier Army—one in which substance misuse is addressed with compassion and effectiveness and every Soldier is equipped to fulfill their mission with excellence.
