The mission of ESD 112 Prevention and Youth services is to foster healthy, safe and engaged students through comprehensive systems of support in order to overcome learning barriers and increase student achievement. 

The goal of ESD 112 Prevention/Intervention Specialists is to increase the educational success of students by building a protective environment, increasing the resiliency of students who are at risk of drug use, and decreasing student use of harmful substances.
