ASAP of Anderson

What ASAP of Anderson does

ASAP of Anderson is a 501(c)(3) substance misuse prevention coalition founded in 2008 and headquartered at 131 S. Charles G. Seivers Boulevard in Clinton, Tennessee. The organization operates a community-coalition model engaging 12 community sectors — including schools, healthcare, law enforcement, faith organizations, government, and local businesses — to deliver evidence-based prevention programming using the SAMHSA Strategic Prevention Framework. Its service portfolio spans youth prevention (Youth Ambassador Coalition, Coping Conversations, Vaping Violation Course, GenerationRx curriculum), overdose prevention (TN Save a Life Training and naloxone distribution via Regional Overdose Prevention Specialists across 8 Tennessee counties), medication safety (24/7 disposal bins at four police departments, medication lock boxes), and business compliance training (Drug-Free Workplace Training at $250-$350 per session, Responsible Alcohol Sales Training with scholarships for Anderson County establishments).

The organization is staffed by a small team of approximately six full-time and part-time personnel — Executive Director Shayla Wilson, Youth Prevention Coordinator Wendy Maness, Regional Overdose Prevention Specialist Kristi Beeler, Student Services Coordinator Laura Taliaferro, Care Coordinator Cassidy Newman, and Executive Assistant Katrina Beltz — supported by a Board of Directors and a documented 13,390 cumulative volunteer hours. Its go-to-market is community-led, delivering services directly through school district partnerships (Anderson County, Clinton City, Oak Ridge Schools), healthcare partnerships (Methodist Medical Center, Cherokee Health Systems), law enforcement (Clinton, Norris, Oak Ridge, Rocky Top Police Departments), and monthly coalition meetings held at the Anderson County Health Department.

Revenue is generated primarily through federal, state, and local grants — including Drug Free Communities (DFC), SAMHSA STOP Act, TN Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse Services, Tennessee Highway Safety Office, TN Commission on Children and Youth, and United Way of Anderson County — supplemented by modest fee-for-service training income and private donations. Documented outcomes include a 53.5% reduction in youth substance misuse, a 67% decrease in Anderson County overdose deaths, and a reported $17.73 in public burden savings for every dollar invested in prevention. The organization has not disclosed total annual revenue or budget figures, and operates without a public-facing API, proprietary technology platform, or app.
