Overview

At Prevention Academy, our mission is to engage students in meaningful conversations about healthy living and informed decision-making. We’re equally committed to supporting the parents, guardians, and school leaders who play such a vital role in students’ lives.

Below, you’ll find a selection of helpful resources to explore. While we’ve curated this list with care, it’s important to note that it’s not exhaustive, and inclusion doesn’t imply full endorsement of any specific service, publication, or organization.

We understand that navigating this information on your own can feel overwhelming. If you’re unsure where to start or simply want to talk through your options, we’re here to help. We encourage you to contact us for more information.
