Schools Using Coordinated Community Efforts to Strengthen Students

Project SUCCESS is a school- based program that works to reduce the factors that put students at risk for substance abuse.  This is achieved by utilizing a combination of activities which are designed to address the unique needs of students.  Strategies include:

• Teaching students skills for resisting peer pressure, healthy decision making, responding to conflicts, refusal skills, coping with anxiety or other stressful situations.

• Providing information to increase their understanding about the harmful consequences of using alcohol, nicotine and other substances.

• Referring students and families in need of additional resources.

  
  

• Working with school and community groups to promote healthy lifestyles for teens.

How to access services: Most students self-refer by stopping in the Project SUCCESS coordinators office, (#509) which is located next to WHS Student Services.  Students are also referred by peers, parents, faculty and the court system.
