UPCOMING COMMUNITY EVENTS:

TEEN INTERVENE

A BRIEF INTERVENTION FOR TEENS USING AND ABUSING ALCOHOL OR DRUGS

This New Program for Teenagers (12 - 19 years old) is Available in Kingston, New Paltz & Ellenville

Teen Intervene is offered though Family of Woodstock at no cost, for teens suspected of or experiencing mild or moderate problems associated with alcohol or drug use. Schools, courts, mental health providers, parents and guardians, DSS, and case managers can make a referral for a teen they are concerned about, and teens can self-refer.

Teen Intervene is an opportunity for teens to discuss their alcohol or drug use, how it influences their daily lives and their reasons for using, and helps identify healthy alternatives to use. The program can include parents or guardians, but it is not required.

The program can be administered in 2 or 3 sessions (depending on parent participation), which last about 45 minutes to 1 hour each.
