Effective and Promising Programs
Promising Programs have been implemented and evaluated sufficiently and are considered to be scientifically defensible. They have demonstrated positive outcomes in preventing substance abuse and related behaviors. However, they have not yet been shown to have sufficient rigor and/or consistently positive outcomes required for Effective Program status.
Effective Programs are well-implemented, well-evaluated programs that produce a consistent positive pattern of results (across domains and/or replications). To become a model program they must be able to disseminate their programs themselves.
U.S. Department of Education
The U.S. Department of Education's Safe and Drug-Free Schools Program (SDFS), in cooperation with the Office of Educational Research and Improvement, has established the Safe, Disciplined, and Drug-Free Schools (SDDFS) Expert Panel. The 15-member SDDFS Expert Panel is composed of education practitioners; researchers; evaluators; program developers; and representatives from local and state education agencies, businesses, institutions of higher education, and from medical and legal communities. The purpose of the Panel is to oversee a process for identifying and designating as promising and exemplary school-based programs that promote safe, disciplined, and drug-free schools. www.ed.gov/admins/lead/safety/exemplary01/panel.html
