National CAPT Network

The Central CAPT web site has moved to be part of a new National CAPT web site. In 10 seconds you will be automatically redirected to http://captus.samhsa.gov/central/central.cfm -- Use this form if you have any questions.

The National CAPT Network consists of five regional CAPTs, all funded by the Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (CSAP) and dedicated to bringing substance abuse prevention research to practice. Each CAPT serves primarily the states within its own region, with special priority on those states receiving a State Incentive Grant (SIG). These SIG states are listed in bold under each region.

Primary contacts for the CAPTs are as follows:
