Prime For Life
Prime For Life is a substance intervention program that is used internationally. It uses tenets of motivational interviewing, connecting clients to their values, low-risk and high-risk behavior around substances (mostly alcohol), biological vs psychological factors. All this is enveloped in the program showing how their values are at risk around high-risk behavior with substances. From there, if the client decides to make a change, facilitators assist in creating a plan of action for change and support! These three or four group sessions will be held in the evenings, and will be 2 hours each, led by a trained facilitator. This program is for youth between 14-18 years old.
