Evidence-Based "Narrowcast" Awareness Tools and Strategies
Narrowcast programs that display print materials and disseminate take-home cards have become useful mechanisms for bridge-building among community services and the priority populations they serve. Studies on school-based awareness projects [developed by EMS] were found to be effective at increasing help-seeking and improving access to community resources with students at risk for chemical dependency, unintended pregnancy, depression, date violence/assault, self-harm and many others.
