The information collected will enable the Director's Three Initiative program to: (a) Identify evidence based approaches to prevention programs among the I/ T/Us when no system is currently in place, and (b) Allow the program managers to review BPPPLE occurring among the I/T/Us when considering program planning for their communities.
