On June 16, 2025, the Department of Health Care Services (DHCS), in contract with the University of California, Los Angeles Integrated Substance Abuse and Addiction Programs, launched the Substance Use Prevention Evidence-Based Resource (SUPER) website. 

SUPER offers a searchable database of evidence-based practices (EBPs) and community-defined evidence practices (CDEPs), serving as a statewide resource that provides clear and accessible information to help California counties, service providers, tribal entities, and other organizations serving youth select culturally appropriate, relevant, and effective EBPs or CDEPs for preventing youth substance use disorders. 

This information includes essential components of an EBPs or CDEPs, such as prevention strategies, risk and protective factors, local adaptations, costs, available training and technical support, and empirical evidence of impact. 

If you have any questions about SUPER, please email DHCSPrevention@dhcs.ca.gov.
