Which entity manages the implementation of the ASAP?

The Army Substance Abuse Program (ASAP) is specifically managed and implemented by the United States Department of Defense (DoD), which oversees various initiatives regarding the health and well-being of military personnel. The DoD's responsibility includes creating and enforcing policies related to substance abuse prevention, education, and treatment across all branches of the military, ensuring that soldiers receive the support necessary to maintain readiness and resilience.

While other entities like the United States Department of Justice and the Federal Substance Abuse Administration may play roles in broader substance abuse initiatives and policy at the national level, they do not have the specific mandate to manage the ASAP within the military context. The Army Medical Command does oversee health services but operates under the guidelines set by the DoD. Therefore, the Department of Defense is correctly identified as the entity responsible for the implementation of the ASAP.
