About Virginia ABC
Virginia ABC is a leading revenue producer for the Commonwealth of Virginia and the source of future economic growth and innovation for the state. The profits that Virginia ABC contributes—collected from distilled spirits sales at ABC stores conveniently located across the state and taxes collected on beer and wine sales—provide much-needed funding for use in a multitude of state programs. This benefits all Virginians. Since its establishment in 1934, Virginia ABC has contributed $13.9 billion to the commonwealth’s general fund supporting major education, health and transportation initiatives.
Virginia ABC’s more than 4,300 employees take pride in our role as public servants and put customers first in all we do. As an authority, ABC administers alcohol-related laws with an emphasis on public safety by ensuring an orderly and regulated system for convenient sales and responsible consumption of alcohol. In 2018, Virginia ABC transitioned from a traditional state government agency to an authority, an independent political subdivision, which provides more flexibility and efficiency as a retailer, wholesaler and regulator of distilled spirits.
Alcohol Education and Prevention Grants
Virginia ABC seeks to partner, collaborate and build capacity with those who share in promoting our message of alcohol safety and responsibility. Through Education and Prevention, Virginia ABC offers annual Alcohol Education and Prevention Grants of up to $10,000.
Grantees are encouraged to build partnerships and embrace collaboration to achieve a meaningful, measurable and long-lasting impact. Members of the Community Health & Engagement team stay in contact throughout the grant cycle to provide support and encourage success.
The purpose of this program is to expand access to evidence-based treatment for OUD by supporting Traveling OBOT programs that deliver MOUD and related services in community-based, nontraditional settings. Funded programs will implement low-barrier, patient-centered care models that meet individuals where they are, particularly those in underserved and high-need communities, including people experiencing homelessness, justice-involved individuals, and residents of rural areas with limited access to treatment. This initiative seeks to improve timely access to care, increase retention in treatment, and reduce opioid-related morbidity and mortality in Idaho through flexible, community- based service delivery. Programs are also expected to integrate evidence-based interventions, behavioral health services, and linkages to social supports, while advancing health equity and addressing disparities in access to OUD treatment.
