Prime for Life.   It’s for the curious, the concerned, and those making high-risk choices. Approximately three out of every ten people in the United States make alcohol and/or drug choices that research shows are high risk. They experience the most problems, and this experience is tailored for them. This group includes, but is not limited to, people with a legal or policy violation on the road (impaired driving offenders), on the job, or at school.  Prime programs are most appropriate for about ages 13 and older.

What We Teach, How We Teach It.   The Exploring Unit examines the perception of personal risk; the Reflecting Unit illustrates the progression toward addiction and allows participants to assess where they might be on that path and the Protecting Unit guides preparation for personal change.
