The Power of Prevention Podcast

This is a podcast for people who are looking for solutions and want to make New Hampshire a better place where we all have the opportunity to live, learn and thrive. In each episode we will go deeper into the topic of substance misuse prevention in New Hampshire.

About The Podcast

We are hoping to make your lives a little better with these inspirational stories about substance misuse prevention. We share our best interviews with people who are working tirelessly in their professions, their families and their communities to stop something unwanted from happening—in this case the misuse of alcohol, tobacco, and other substances.

Our host, Christin D’Ovidio, is a seasoned public health communicator at JSI Research & Training Institute, Inc. where she researches, develops and designs health behavior campaigns to impact individuals and communities. When she’s not “digging in” to motivate change for public or climate health, she’s busy digging in the dirt in her garden and motivating and raising her two children in Bow, NH.
