Abstract
Failures to implement substance use prevention programs preclude success in program effectiveness and sustantation. Failures to initiate substance use prevention programs can result from the failure of program managers to meet the challenges which occur in the creation and management of program organizations. Attention to the program organization from a variety of frameworks is useful in the implementation process. Based on divergent organizational theories, four approaches utilized in the implementation of a substance use prevention program are presented.Keywords
