Our Programs

prevention works

Research has shown that drug addiction is both preventable and treatable. Addiction is a developmental disorder that often begins in adolescence, but as early as childhood. Addiction can be mitigated by preventing and increasing the age of initiation among youth. A vital component to mitigating experimental use among young people is utilizing effective prevention strategies and evidence-based programs.

Catch My Breath

Catch My Breath is an evidence-based vaping prevention program designed for 5th-12th grade students. The program empowers students with the knowledge and skills needed to make informed decisions about e-cigarettes and resist social pressures to vape.
