Community Education
The Council runs a Community Education Program in all 5 Counties that we serve. This program focuses on community residence from pre-school age to the elderly. We provide education in jails, schools, churches, youth groups, probation, DSS and anywhere else we can obtain an audience. Within this program we provide Evidence Based Programs (EBPs) such as Life Skills, Too Good for Violence, Too Good for Drugs and Violence, SPORT, Guiding Good Choices, and Anger Management; as well as a host of other single session educational speaking events on ATOD and gambling problem behaviors. These single session events are tailored inhouse to meet the needs of the population being served. It is within the Community Education program that the Council also offers the ADPEP program, a six-hour court referred education program to first time offenders of the ABC laws for youth up to the age of 21. The five staff that run this program report to the Director of Programs for support, supervision and reporting.
