These are the years to develop and strengthen the resilience of children and teenagers. Our programs provide young people with the tools they need to solve problems and cope with life’s challenges as well as help strengthen family relationships.

PreVenture® is a prevention program for youth aged 12-18 that uses personality-focused interventions to promote mental health and reduce the risk of substance use.
The workshops are designed to help students learn useful coping skills, set long term goals, and channel their personality traits towards achieving them, so that they can thrive in all areas of their lives.
