Welcome to the Substance Abuse Prevention Planning and Epidemiology Tool (SAPPET)!

The Substance Abuse Prevention Planning and Epidemiology Tool (SAPPET) is an online data tool designed to help SAMHSA-funded prevention grantees access and use data to guide their prevention planning efforts. The effectiveness of SAMHSA's Strategic Prevention Framework (SPF) begins with a clear understanding of community needs. SAPPET offers practitioners immediate access to data that can help them understand and prioritize the substance-related problems their communities face. SAPPET contains 151 behavioral health key indicators from 11 national data sources, and makes these data available by state. Indicators are categorized into substance-related consequences, consumption patterns, and associated risk and protective factors. To download the SAPPET overview, click here.
