SPF Model

The SPF model includes these five steps:

1) Assessment: Identify local prevention needs based on data (e .g ., What is the problem?)

2) Capacity: Build local resources and readiness to address prevention needs (e .g ., What do you have to work with?)

3) Planning: Find out what works to address prevention needs and how to do it well (e .g ., What should you do and how should you do it?)

4) Implementation: Deliver evidence-based programs and practices as intended (e .g ., How can you put your plan into action?)

5) Evaluation: Examine the process and outcomes of programs and practices (e .g ., Is your plan succeeding?)
