Effective School-Based Substance Use Prevention Programs
Wellspring’s effective approaches to school-based alcohol and other drug prevention include teaching students how to resist peer influences, improving life skills, involving families, and providing opportunities to become involved in positive experiences with others in the school and community.
When most people think of prevention, they think of school programs. Unfortunately, if you ask any child, you will learn that too many programs do no good at all or even encourage experimentation with alcohol and other drugs. At Wellspring, we know our programs are effective, because they have all been rigorously evaluated to document their impact.
To schedule a program in your school, please call us at 732-254-3344 or email us at mail@wellspringprevention.org
