Peervention: Training Peer Facilitators for Prevention Education

“PEERVENTION” is a marriage between two concepts: PEER facilitation and preVENTION education. The program is designed to equip students to assist others in both individual and group settings with the prevention of: school disorientation, academic failure, depression and suicide, eating disorders, family distress, alcohol and drug abuse, body assault, sex-related problems, career indecision, and community unrest. PEERVENTION is ideal as a textbook for comprehensive peer helper or service learning programs.
