Destinations for Teens PEP Talks

Destinations P.E.P (Prepare. Educate. Prevent) Talks are aimed at educating staff, students and teachers on various topics of mental health and substance use. More and more teenagers are being exposed to substances without knowledge of their harmful effects. Teens are also under a great deal of academic, social and peer pressure leading them to feelings of anxiety and depression. Without the right education and coping strategies, teens will turn to unhealthy behaviors to manage their emotions, including the use of drugs and alcohol. Destinations P.E.P. Talks hope to empower our youth and the community to make healthier choices through preparation, education and prevention while becoming independent in his/her well-being.
