Our services emphasize prevention, early intervention, and education, and focus on the total health and well-being of adolescents and young adults. Prevention keeps students healthy so that they can succeed in school and have a promising future. Prevention and early intervention make financial sense too by reducing overall health care expenditures and inappropriate use of the emergency department.

Individual, group, and school-wide prevention messages offered include:

• Tobacco and drug prevention.
• Healthy eating/obesity counseling.
• Physical activity/exercise.
• Emotional health.
• Screening for chronic diseases such as asthma and diabetes.
