Every child deserves a positive future and the chance to achieve his or her goals without being sidetracked by drugs, alcohol, tobacco, sex and other risky behaviors. We want to give them the skills to make healthy decisions so they can live long, healthy, happy, and successful lives. This is a difficult challenge in today's media-driven culture.
The PEERS Project is unique in meeting this challenge. Positive teenage role models in high schools lead by example and teach its proprietary, interactive curriculum to middle school students during the school day. These "PEER Mentors" become a powerful influence for good as they talk to younger peers about the importance of making good decisions.
