Maximizing Life
Focused on strengthening the protective factors that help prevent alcohol, tobacco, and other substance use, this program introduces students to essential life skills like goal setting, decision-making, and conflict resolution, while reinforcing positive attitudes and behaviors.
A Peaceable Place
We focus on strengthening communication, emotional awareness, and relationship-building skills through a curriculum emphasizing healthy beliefs and clear behavioral standards while reinforcing the importance of empathy, respect, and accountability.
Positive Action
Designed to promote social and emotional learning while encouraging positive behavior, this curriculum teaches students that how they think influences how they act, and how they act shapes their experiences.
The Circle
The Circle is an after-school support group grounded in relational theory, resiliency practices, and skill-building. It provides a safe and inclusive environment where participants can speak openly, listen to others, and explore topics that impact their daily lives.
Teen Intervene
A brief intervention program focused on teens with mild to moderate substance use. We guide teens as they explore their behaviors, understand the impact of substance use, and develop strategies for change.
