Community Risk and Protection Profiles

As part of the strategic planning for the State Incentive Grant for Drug Abuse Prevention (SIG), the Center on the Family developed 13 Community Risk and Protection Profiles. These profiles serve as a foundation upon which community members can define the needs and strengths of their own neighborhoods in planning their prevention proposals. The data in these 13 reports are drawn from multiple sources, including state, county, and Department of Education administrative data, the Hawai‘i Community Foundation 2000 Social Capital Benchmark Survey, and the 2000 Hawai‘i Student Alcohol, Tobacco, and Other Drug Use Study, which surveyed more than 25,000 6th-, 8th-, 10th-, and 12th-grade public and private school students. Student responses to questions related to risk and protection in the Community Profiles are exclusively from the 10th-graders.
