Pursuing freedom & healing from addiction. At all costs.

Classroom-Based Education

Prevention works. Our lessons meet kids where they are – in the classroom! All of these lessons are offered at no-cost to schools (public and private) throughout Central Alabama. The programs are evidence-informed and research-based.
Current offerings:

KindergartenWinning Friendships – This four-lesson unit promotes language and behaviors that build friendships and provide skills to handle uncomfortable feelings.

1st gradeCaring 4 Classmates – This four-lesson unit helps students develop social competency skills: self-respect, sharing, and reaching out to friends.

5th GradeO2BDrugFree — This four-lesson unit provides information on alcohol, tobacco/vaping, and cannabis. It also helps students understand that respecting themselves and using refusal strategies will give them the inner strength to stay away from alcohol and other drugs.

8th GradeRefuse to Lose – This four-lesson unit presents information on specific drugs (e.g. alcohol, tobacco/vaping, cannabis, opioids).

9th-12th GradeCheck Your Attitude – This four-lesson unit presents information on specific drugs (e.g. alcohol, tobacco/vaping, cannabis, fentanyl).
