Transfer of ABC Practice
Act, Belong, Commit (ABC) is an evidence‑based mental health promotion framework that encourages people to stay active, build social connections, and engage in meaningful activities.
JA PRISM applies a scaling-out methodology to support European countries in implementing evidence-based mental health promotion and prevention practices adapted to local needs, capacities, and available resources. Building on approaches successfully applied in previous Joint Actions such as JADECARE and JACARDI, this methodology is structured around three interconnected components: transfer and adoption, capacity building, and evaluation. These components directly inform the types of data collected within the Joint Action and the governance structures for data management across implementation sites.
