Issues that include alcohol, tobacco and suicide are serious problems in Wyoming. In recent months Community prevention specialists in each county in the state have been compiling a needs assessment developed by the Wyoming Survey and Analysis Center, or WYSAC. The specialists are trying to identify the extent of the problem in each of the three topic areas and the next step is to try and find some solutions. Rich Lindsey, who represents the Prevention Management Organization of Wyoming says they picked those topic areas for a reason.
