What is Prevention?

Marion-Crawford Prevention Programs provides an assortment of evidence-based prevention programs practices. One of those practices is youth-led prevention. We have a strong presence of youth-led prevention programs in the two county area. Practicing evidence-based prevention means using the best available research and data throughout the process of planning and implementing prevention efforts. Youth-led programs are distinct because they develop young people's knowledge, skills and attitudes to be catalysts for positive change within their respective communities. Youth-led prevention empowers young people to create community change, and we are honored to be a part of it.
