About the event
This training will address why outdated prevention practices do not resonate with youth, nor work in preventing youth from using substances. Learn about the developing brain and why some message work better than others. Also, learn how to transform your strategies using best prevention practices.
Learning Objectives:
1. Identify common prevention practices that aren’t based on best practice
2. Explain to stakeholders why scare tactics aren’t effective using prevention science
3. Transform ineffective strategies into best practices
