Connecting Across Cultures is funded by Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and is an offshoot of CSAP’s Northeast Center for the Application of Prevention Technologies (CAPT) at EDC, Inc. which is one of five regional centers funded by the Center for Substance Abuse Prevention. The mission of the CAPT is to support the application of evidence-based substance abuse prevention programs and strategies at the regional, state and local levels; and to enhance collaboration between and within each level.
