Abstract | The environmental management approach to alcohol and other drug abuse and violence (AODV) prevention is based on the principle that college students' conduct can be shaped through concerted efforts to reengineer the environment that shapes their behavior. Constructing a campus, community, and state-level environment that will protect students and help them make healthier and safer decisions is challenging work, which requires an organized and participatory process to develop, implement, and evaluate a sound strategic plan. This process includes three types of participatory efforts. On "campus", the college president or chancellor can begin by appointing a permanent task force that represents several important constituencies, including key administrative staff, faculty, and students, and possibly alumni and parents. To guide "community-level" efforts, the task force can collaborate with, or evolve into, a full coalition that includes both campus and civic leaders. Finally, work at the "state level" can be facilitated by a statewide association of academic, community, and state prevention leaders. This publication outlines how campus officials can organize and work collaboratively with campus and community coalitions and with statewide initiatives to accomplish their AODV prevention goals.
