Which role does the unit commander NOT have in managing the ASAP?

The role that falls outside the unit commander's responsibilities in managing the Army Substance Abuse Program (ASAP) is the disregard for the program's policies. Commanders are expected to uphold and enforce all policies related to the ASAP. They play a critical role in ensuring compliance with established guidelines and promoting a culture that prioritizes substance abuse prevention and recovery.

The responsibilities of unit commanders include providing recovery support, which can involve facilitating access to treatment programs and supporting soldiers in recovery. They also create an environment against substance abuse by fostering a culture of health and wellness, making it clear that substance abuse is not tolerated. Furthermore, commanders are charged with implementing training about substance abuse to educate their personnel on the risks and consequences of using drugs and alcohol, thus reinforcing the importance of adhering to the ASAP. Disregarding program policies undermines the program's integrity and can adversely impact the unit's overall readiness and morale.
