Notes
1. Student Assistance Programs (SAPs), a main source of prevention and intervention in high schools, are not addressed at length in this work. SAPs have existed in the United States since the 1980s, and, while they provide some level of recovery support, many student assistant professionals focus on prevention and early identification/intervention. The scope of SAPs varies from state to state and district to district, and a relevant discussion of these programs deserves its own volume. The National Student Assistance Association (http://www.nsac.info/) can provide more information about the scope and evidence-based practices of SAPs in the United States
