What We Do
Prevention Ed is proud to partner with schools globally, to deliver a progressive prevention program that makes a real impact.
Our team of Prevention Specialists are not only in long-term recovery from addiction but also have clinical degrees in behavioral health.
Our personal stories of recovery powerfully animate our evidence-based lessons on alcohol, other drugs, teenage brain development, media literacy, social norms, and discuss the critical connection between mental health and substance use.
School Based Prevention
Online Prevention Education Curriculums
Our suite of online prevention training courses supports educators and parents to stay informed about the latest trends in cannabis, alcohol, and other drugs.
Student Substance Use and Peer Perception Survey
Prevention Ed offers the Student Substance Use and Peer Perception Survey (SUPP) as a key service for schools that want to use their community's data to understand the unique risks students face.
It was designed in collaboration with leading public health, addiction medicine, and mental health experts.
Our early intervention training provides communities with the essential tools and strategies to identify and address substance use in students early on.
Participants gain insights through interactive workshops and real-life scenarios, learning to spot warning signs, start meaningful conversations, and guide students to suitable support services through early intervention.
