Help Youth In Your Community
PreVenture differentiates itself through its strong evidence base. The Program was tested in multiple randomized control trials in Canada, Australia, The Netherlands and the United Kingdom. These trials produced solid scientific results demonstrating that PreVenture works and is effective beyond reducing drinking and drug-use rates. Proven results include:
- Delayed onset of drinking and binge drinking
- Reduced risk for alcohol-related problems
- Reduced risk for mental health problems such as anxiety, depression
- Fewer misconduct problems
PreVenture’s unique combination of brief, evidence-based, personality targeted workshops is a novel approach to substance use prevention.

Benefits of PreVenture Workshops

program is designed to transfer skills as well. Youth learn adaptive coping-skills, how to set long-term
goals and how to channel their personality towards achieving them. These skills empower youth to
