The fellowship occurs in four phases: in Phase 1 (1 month) the fellow works with the NW PTTC team to gain insight about the prevention landscape in Region 10; in Phase 2 (3 months) the fellow works with a Region 10 state behavioral health agency staff to learn more about state-level prevention policies and projects; in Phase 3 (3 months) the fellow works with an existing substance misuse prevention coalition community, serving as a mentee under a current prevention coordinator; and in Phase 4 (3 months), the fellow works with a high-need community in a Region 10 state to begin building a prevention coalition. For all phases, fellows can work remotely from Washington, Idaho, Oregon or Alaska. Applicants of all backgrounds and abilities, especially those from historically underrepresented groups, are encouraged to apply.


Application Screening will begin November 30, 2022 and will continue until the position is filled.
