Commentary: This resolve would authorize the City Manager to accept and appropriate
$115,638 in grant funds from the Office of Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services for the
first of a five-year project, renewable each year, for substance abuse prevention programs. The
term of the first year would be October 1, 2015 to June 30, 2016.
The purpose of Maine's PFS 2015 project is to reduce underage drinking among the 12-20 year
old population and to reduce high risk drinking, prescription drug abuse and marijuana use
among the 12-25 year old population. During this five year project, evidence -based
environmental strategies and programs will be implemented state-wide through community
prevention coalitions located in all nine of Maine's Public Health Districts.
Bangor Public Health and Community Services would serve as the lead agency to receive
funding on behalf of the three Penquis District Healthy Maine Partnerships. This includes the
thirteen municipalities of the Bangor region; the Partnership for Healthy Northern Penobscot;
and the Piscataquis Public Health Council.
