JEFF HILLWCSPC EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
RECOVERY COACH SBIRT CERTIFIED OFFICE (252) 991-7267 CELL (919) 920-4444 I am Jeff Hill and I serve as the Executive Director of the Wilson County Substance Prevention Coalition. My passion to reach our community with prevention tools and methods comes from my own lived experiences. My wife (Christina) and I reside in Goldsboro with our dogs, Champ and Olive, but Wilson is definitely home to us.
I have experience serving vulnerable at-risk populations experiencing substance misuse and other challenges. I have worked with impoverished demographics within the Wilson County limits for the past two years, serving populations ranging in various ages, ethnicities, and education within a non-profit (501c3) work environment. My areas of proficiency include educational development, workforce related training, and personal/behavioral skills training/counseling. In September 2017, I became certified to implement a behavioral risk/need assessment known as the Level of Service/Case Management Inventory (LS/CMI) by the Alma Institute and was later certified as a Recovery Coach via the Connecticut Community for Addiction Recovery (CCAR) in October 2018. In my current position as coalition director, I oversee several grants that have allowed us to supply our great community with medication lock boxes, medication disposal kits, naloxone kits and education for prevention, treatment and recovery programs. I served as Project Director for RCORP-Planning and RCORP Implementation Grants for the duration of the grants. Currently, I serve as project director for the HRSA RCORP Impact Grant, the SAMHSA SPF-PFS 23 Grant and co-project director for RCORP Behavioral Healthcare Support Grant. I also manage the Opioid Settlement Plan for Wilson County. The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) Strategic Prevention Framework (SPF) Grant was established to help reduce the onset and progression of substance misuse and its related problems by supporting the development and delivery of community-based substance misuse prevention and mental health promotion services. The Rural Communities Opioid Response Program (RCORP) is a multi-year initiative by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) aimed at promoting mental health wellness and reducing the morbidity and mortality of substance use disorder (SUD), including opioid use disorder (OUD), in high risk rural communities. ASHLIE SMITHYOUTH ENGAGEMENT COORDINATOR
RECOVERY COACH OFFICE (252) 991-7267 My name is Ashlie Smith. I am the Youth Engagement Coordinator. I have always had a desire to work with youth in various capacities. Over the last ten years, I have worked in the capacity as a tutor, substitute teacher, classified teacher assistant as well as an Expectational Children’s teacher. In my leisure time, I have hosted youth group bible studies monthly, volunteered my time at Old Waynesborough Park during celebrations as well as volunteered and participated in school field days.
Currently, I am the Youth Grant Coordinator for the Strategic Prevention Framework (SPF) Grant at Wilson County Substance Prevention Coalition. The purpose of the SPF Grant is to prevent the onset and reduce the evolution of substance misuse among youth on a community and state level. Thus far, we have obtained numerous community support investors. We have a focused effort with local law enforcement, Barton College and the Wilson County Public Schools. We are planning implementation of various prevention educational programs in elementary, middle and high schools. An after school program has been established to assist in developing a relationship and bond with youth. The after school program will be facilitated at the Young Men’s Christian Association (YMCA) of Wilson. Through the use of a variety of learning approaches, the program’s purpose is to enhance and broaden their educational knowledge of substance prevention. Additionally, we are currently in the process of creating a youth coalition to further the outreach to the youth in the Wilson community. ![]() ANNA DAVIS HARRISCOMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT COORDINATOR

I have a passion for helping people and making a difference. I am grateful for the opportunity I have to work here and share with our community how important prevention is.
In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my husband, Parker; my two cats, Duke and Kiara; and my family. I also enjoy traveling, sightseeing, and photography! Prior to working for the WCSPC, I helped with the Reformers Unanimous program at Tabernacle Baptist Church while attending Wilson Christian Academy. After that, I attended West Coast Baptist College and received my degree in Office Administration. My job with the WCSPC primarily consists of doing our social media, graphic design, advertising, attending/leading community events, and working with our community partners!

Since I started working here in July of 2021, I have gone through several certification programs/classes such as the NC State Addictions Specialist Certificate Program, Recovery Coach Academy, and Youth & Adult Mental Health First Aid. I am thankful for every opportunity I am given to learn more so I can use that knowledge to help our community! |
