Preventure is a brief intervention for teenagers aimed at improving mental health and preventing drug and alcohol use and other risk-taking behaviours. The intervention targets four personality styles that may place teenagers at higher risk.
It has demonstrated effectiveness in reducing mental health symptoms and drug and alcohol related harms. The intervention involves participation in two x 90 minute workshops.
These focus on motivating students and helping them understand emotional and behavioural reactions. The sessions incorporate psycho-educational and cognitive behavioural components, and include real life scenarios.
