Event Details:

Project SUCCESS (Schools Using Coordinated Community Efforts to Strengthen Students) prevents and reduces substance use among high-risk, multiproblem high school adolescents. Developed and tested with alternative school youth 14 to18 years old, the program places highly trained professionals in schools to provide a full range of substance use prevention and early intervention services. Counselors use a variety of intervention strategies, including:

* Information dissemination
* Normative and preventive education
* Counseling and skills training
* Problem identification and referral
* Community-based processes
* Environmental approaches

In addition, Project SUCCESS links the school to the community’s continuum of care when necessary, referring both students and families to human services organizations, including substance abuse treatment agencies.
