Prevention Profiles: Take Five with Allison Smith

Classroom full of people looking at front of classroom [ [link removed] ]

When the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration offered a paid internship, *Dr. Allison Smith* realized that her passion for prevention and substance misuse could be a viable career.?

The opportunity for growth within the field allowed Dr. Smith to dive into the concept of cultural competence. Seeing the lack of conversation about substance use prevention on campus, alongside the underrepresentation of people of color in higher education positions, Dr. Smith got to work connecting young adults with experts.

"If you want to be competent, there are some things you just don't know about other cultures. There is a huge value to those lived experiences that no amount of reading will provide you."
