Peer Leader Training
Research shows that intervention through peer groups is one of the most effective methods to prevent many of the problems young people face involving alcohol and drug use, violence or other risk taking behavior. Peer Leader training teaches communication skills, decision making and problem solving strategies, and refusal skills so that young people can effectively help their peers, themselves and their communities.

For Grades 3 through 12

10-12 hours of training scheduled to meet the needs of the school or agency
