Scale indicators4 records

Broad incumbents

• SAMHSA (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration): The federal agency funding and disseminating evidence-based substance use and mental health prevention programs. Prevention Insights operates as a downstream implementer of SAMHSA-aligned frameworks (SBIRT, prevention ethics), making SAMHSA both a funder and strategic comparable.
• Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation: A large nonprofit provider of addiction treatment and prevention education. Comparable to Prevention Insights in substance use disorder prevention and recovery mission, though Hazelden Betty Ford operates a much broader clinical treatment portfolio.
• Mental Health America: A national nonprofit addressing mental health through screening, education, advocacy, and training. Comparable to Prevention Insights in providing mental health awareness training (Mental Health First Aid-style offerings) and free public-facing prevention resources.

Direct peers

• Pacific Institute for Research and Evaluation (PIRE): A nonprofit research organization conducting behavioral and public health research, including substance use prevention evaluation. Comparable as a research-oriented nonprofit producing prevention science and applied evaluations for state/federal clients.
• University of Michigan Prevention Research Center: Academic prevention research center conducting community-based prevention research on substance use and youth risk behaviors. Directly comparable as a university-affiliated prevention research and translation center with overlapping mission and operational model to Prevention Insights at IU.
• Partnership to End Addiction: A national nonprofit addressing addiction through prevention education, parent/family support, and policy advocacy. Comparable to Prevention Insights in substance use prevention education and family/community-focused mission.
• CADCA (Community Anti-Drug Coalitions of America): A national nonprofit focused on substance use prevention through community coalitions and training. Directly comparable as a substance abuse prevention nonprofit delivering training and capacity-building to community organizations, similar to Prevention Insights' county-level partnership model.

Regional players

Comparable as a regional/state-level player in the same prevention domains where Prevention Insights operates, though as a government entity rather than a research center.
