Ready to officially kick off #CPN2019
.@EVERFI's four areas of comprehensive programming.

#CPN2019
I'm always for a good opening joke and @tarawestover delivered! 😂

#CPN2019
You don't have to believe something about yourself just because someone else does, even if it's someone you love. - @tarawestover paraphrasing Mills #CPN2019
Loving someone doesn't give you the power to change them. - @tarawestover #CPN2019
Fun fact: @tarawestover and I share a fave scripture, Hebrews 11:1, which reads:

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

#CPN2019
Be still my heart! These are definitely near & dear to me!

Ready to Kick-off Day 2 of #CPN2019!

@EVERFI #PreventionMatters
Congrats to all of the @EVERFI Impact Award winners!

#CPN2019
Love the intentionality behind the @EVERFI Commitment to Respect!

#CPN2019
Excited for the first plenary session by Kimberly Timpf of @EVERFI!

#CPN2019
I'm pretty sure many of you have seen this before... - Kimberly Timpf of @EVERFI #CPN2019 #PreventionMatters

I must say though, this is THE cutest version I've seen!
When we think of "in loco parentis" it was more paternalistic, now driven by: shifting cultural/social norms, evolution of human development, liability concerns (#TitleIX, #DFSCA) & rise of mega universities & online.

- Kimberly Timpf of @EVERFI #CPN2019 #PreventionMatters
Excellent point by Kimberly Timpf of @EVERFI about how #CommunityColleges and #TechnicalColleges being short on staff make them more likely to be fined on #DFSCA reporting --- which is why we offer FREE compliance trainings for our Louisiana institutions!
Students are reporting being #SoberCurious where students are more so focused on health and a reduction in stress & anxiety --- and it hasnt nothing to do with recovery.

- Kimberly Timpf of @EVERFI #CPN2019 #PreventionMatters
Kimberly Timpf of @EVERFI just mentioned that she was little surprised that the cocaine number kind of surprised her --- until she heard from some campuses.

For Louisiana, that is the 30-day number that has been rising in our Core Survey data.

#CPN2019 #PreventionMatters
#HighIntensityDrinking refers to 10 or more drinks in a sitting or 15 or more at least once in the prior 2 weeks... and it's actually trending downward. - Kimberly Timpf of @EVERFI #CPN2019 #PreventionMatters
Although more opiates are prescribed for college students, the actual abuse occurs more with stimulants. - Kimberly Timpf of @EVERFI #CPN2019 #PreventionMatters

(Let me just say, I've been screaming that for the past 3 years, glad to know other data sets support that!)
We need to keep in mind that #Cannabis is no longer "just weed."-
- Kimberly Timpf of @EVERFI quoting THE great Drs. Jason Kilmer & Amelia Arria #CPN2019
Sometimes students are just abstainers, they're not necessarily using other drugs because they're not using alcohol. - Kimberly Timpf of @EVERFI #CPN2019
We have to acknowledge what we're working *with* and where we're working *from.* - Kimberly Timpf of @EVERFI #CPN2019
One size doesn't fit all! Harm reduction & BASICS doesn't work for students who don't drink. - Kimberly Timpf of @EVERFI #CPN2019
Do we know that said effective approach works with OUR population? - Kimberly Timpf of @EVERFI #CPN2019
Two examples of schools doing an awesome job using #BASICS: @MarquetteU + @WakeForest. - Kimberly Timpf of @EVERFI #CPN2019 #PreventionMatters
So grateful for Angel sharing his experience!

This is an extremely important nuance to understand as our field looks at the expansion of #CollegiateRecovery and access to treatment.

#CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
Here's an example of why we have to be sure that we're asking the right questions.

For example, you need to know that although African American students may make up 13% of your population, 49% of them are abstainers. - Kimberly Timpf of @EVERFI #CPN2019 #PreventionMatters
What a beautiful representation of student voices included in the learning module!

EXCELLENT plenary session by - Kimberly Timpf of @EVERFI! #CPN2019 #PreventionMatters
I have been WAITING for this session!!! Happy to hear from Reonda Washington of @UWMadison! #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
There is no state board that regulates the sale of alcohol in Wisconsin, it's done by municipalities. - Reonda Washington of @UWMadison! #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
Wisconsin is similar to Louisiana with their parent law --- where parents/guardians can purchase alcohol for their underage child. #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
My mind when I heard Reonda say UW-Madison has an on-campus detox center. (It's open to everyone) #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
The average BAC of a @UWMadison student transported is 0.222 -- almost 3x the legal BAC limit of 0.08 - Reonda Washington #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
How Students of Color and White Students view alcohol use on their campus. - Reonda Washington of @UWMadison! #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
(Unsurprisingly) the link between high-risk drinking and sexual assault showed up. #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
How alcohol use at @UWMadison impacts students sense of belonging. - Reonda Washington of @UWMadison! #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
Excellent audience Q&A portion!

Fun fact: Both @UWMadison and @LSU were part of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation's A Matter of Degree #AMOD program --- established to help implement environmental strategies to lower high-risk drinking.

#CPN2019 #PreventionMatters @EVERFI
And @LSU's participation in #AMOD is actually what led to the creation of our office (initially as the Campus Community Coalition for Change or the #CCCC in 1998) -- before we became #LaCASU in 2006 and moved to @LA_Regents in July 2018.

#CPN2019 #PreventionMatters @EVERFI
The CPN Framework for Prevention -- the components for which the @EVERFI 2019 Impact Awardees were based upon.

#CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
Simple, yet profoundly important, point made by Peter Rives of @WakeForest:

Don't discount the voice of students to communicate your messaging effectively. Invite them to the table to help you craft it.

#CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters

#CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
Focusing on the human element behind the resources has allowed us to move forward a little faster. - Sarah Cramer of @CentreC #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
Compliance is the floor, NOT the ceiling. - Vickie Sides of @UChicago #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
Training student peer educators to provide prevention elevator speeches to constituent groups has been really impactful.... and hand-written thank you notes. - Amanda Collings Vann of @AmherstCollege #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
My feelings are bulletproof, I work with college students! - Susan Cramer of @CentreC

#CPN2019 #PreventionMatters
Shout out to @BrownUniversity for the incredible strides they've made around improving access to mental health services!

@EVERFI #CPN2019 #PreventionMatters

(Definitely something I'll be looking into as this is a consistent concern on a lot of our Louisiana campuses!)
Excellent plenary session by Erin McClintock of @EVERFI, with some equally excellent key takeaways!

#CPN2019 #PreventionMatters
Talk of statewide coalitions on prevention?!

Sign me up!!! @EVERFI #CPN2019 #PreventionMatters

Hopefully I get to see a lot of the folks in the room at #NtlMtg19 with @hecaod! 👀
OF COURSE @MissouriPIP comes up when talking about collegiate prevention in Missouri!

#CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
You cannot do good #BystanderIntervention if students do not understand what #consent is. - Matthew Huffman of @MCADSV #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
Lessons learned: Partnerships, Patience & Persistence! - Matthew Huffman of @MCADSV #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters

Truer words may have never been spoken about what's needed for collaboration!
Love this creativity from students at @MTSU! via @tnchasco

#CPN2019 #PreventionMatters @EVERFI
I missed a big part of Tom Fontana's (from @uvmvermont) @hecaod presentation a few weeks ago, so glad to have the chance to hear him in full!

#CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
"I got drunk last night" is NOT the same as "I got f----- up last night."

1 is "I drank some alcohol" and 1 is "I drank ALL the alcohol."

The language that students use is important. - Tom Fontana #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
In weed culture, you won't see a white lighter --- it's considered bad luck. - Tom Fontana #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
In your assessment efforts, you want to ask about #cannabis, not weed, not marijuana --- but cannabis. Cannabis refers to the flowering bud and its derivatives. - Tom Fontana #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
If you're in a legalized state, have you visited your cannabis shops? They'll gladly show you the various THC contents they have for sale --- this is NOT the same level of content from years ago. - Tom Fontana #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
For reference, an ounce of weed is NOT a small amount. - Tom Fontana #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
Book recommendation: Dorm Room Drug Dealers: Drugs and The Privileges of Race and Class by A. Rafik Mohamed & Erik D. Fritsvold.

The way we consider outlet density for alcohol, we have to consider outlet density for weed as well.- Tom Fontana #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
The Fleek app came about (and went) after Snapchat went public and had to adhere to its guidelines to not show drugs. - Tom Fontana #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
#BeingHigh is more about the experience you have when the active chemical is in your body but #GettingHigh is about the social experience of doing it with other people." - Tom Fontana #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
College students aren't all of a sudden interested in creme bruleé... they're using the butane torches to light shatter, a super concentrated form of THC. - Tom Fontana #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
Social norms that are seen as negative for alcohol use are: using by yourself, during the week or first thing in the morning --- students don't adhere to those norms regarding cannabis use. - Tom Fontana #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
We do not have safe guidelines around cannabis use the way we do around alcohol use. - Tom Fontana #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
Soooooooo excited for Day 3 of #CPN2019 and to hear Dr. Anita Hill speak!!!

@EVERFI #PreventionMatters
Everyone's privilege can AND will be checked! - Dr. @Franceemcclure McClure during her introduction of Prof. Anita Hill.

#CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
Today's talk will be broken into three parts: (1) stories that motivate me, (2) stories that shape the work ahead and (3) institutional stories that shape policy and outcomes. - Prof. Anita Hill #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
My grandfather, born just a few generations ago, was born a slave . My ancestors had no rights. - Prof. Anita Hill #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
I know that when policies are made without the voices of the most marginalized and vulnerable, we all suffer. - Prof. Anita Hill #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
Many people will tell you that women did not complain previously but that is not true --- many women DID complain. Particularly in the 1970s, lawsuits were brought by Black women which is often glossed over. - Prof. Anita Hill #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
Too often we don't do it (corming forward about sexual assault) for ourselves, but we will do it to protect others. - Prof. Anita Hill #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
How do we get more women to come forward?

We have to build better systems for them to come forward into. - Prof. Anita Hill #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
Too often our systems don't take into account that out students already come to us with a certain set of experiences. - Prof. Anita Hill #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
Prof. Anita Hill says she didn't know anything about #intersectionality back in 1991 --- and now it's everywhere on college campuses.

#CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters

HUGE shout out to @sandylocks for coining the term!
Even Supreme Court Justices can use language that normalizes abuse for students, such as "routine problems of adolescent behavior" as quoted in Kennedy's dissent in the LaShonda Davis case. - Prof. Anita Hill #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
Most college deals include a reference to truth.

What does your college seal say? And is it living up to that? - Prof. Anita Hill #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
You are the people who will hold the institutions to account for being true to their OWN espoused values. - Prof. Anita Hill #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
YOU are the people who can change the story. It won't be easy, but it will require you to take risks and it will require you to be courageous. - Prof. Anita Hill #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
Guess who is a proud #conemover?!

Absolutely awesome keynote by Prof. Anita Hill!!!

#CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
Last breakout session of #CPN2019 for me is hearing about the GREAT work that Terry Koons of @ohiou is doing!

@EVERFI #PreventionMatters
Terry Koons is sharing about the #2ndSpringBreak --- the unofficial extra holiday @ohiou students deemed the Thursday prior to Memorial Day until the following Tuesday. #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
Those "unofficial holidays" (usually learned about by talking with students) are the things we *have* to account for in our own prevention programming. #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
For example: I learned about a "Boys Bid Night" ritual --- a goal to completely run through the local bars entire liquor stock on the Monday night before classes began --- from a group of graduating seniors I was partnering with. #CPN2019 @EVERFI #PreventionMatters
Until next time....

As a first time attendee, #CPN2019 was amazing! Hats off to the @EVERFI team! #PreventionMatters

(Psssst, I'm sure there will be a next time!)
