The University of Oregon’s Substance Abuse Prevention and Education (SAPE) program supports students in making informed decisions about alcohol, cannabis, and other drugs. SAPE uses peer-led programming, harm-reduction, and evidence-informed strategies to reduce substance-related concerns, combat stigma, and connect students with education, screening, and support. Prevention efforts include peer education, campus trainings, screening tools, and connections to recovery and clinical resources.
