Prevention means giving people all the information and resources they need to recognize the signs of drug and alcohol abuse, mental health issues, and high-risk behaviors. By building awareness we empower our customers to effectively reduce and prevent their risks for disease. Through our early intervention programs, we conduct outreach, education, and engagement services as essential components of holistic servkices for our clients and the community.
