How Our Programs Work

Cost-Effective & Easy to Implement

We understand that prevention and health providers are looking for the most effective way to spend their funds. Prevention Plus Wellness programs have a high cost-benefit ratio, plus they are easy to implement by just reading the program script. 

Because our programs are just a single session and address multiple mental and physical health risk behaviors, a single program can reach large numbers of youth and have many health outcomes. The SPORT PPW program, for example, has cost benefits of almost $300 per participant: Washington State Institute for Public Policy.

Wellness emphasizes having positive goals, learning self-regulation skills, and choosing a healthy identity and habits.
