PRIME FOR LIFE

A JUDGEMENT-FREE PATH TO AWARENESS, PREVENTION AND GROWTH

Prime for Life is an evidence-based prevention and intervention program offered through Catholic Human Services, designed to help individuals understand the risks associated with alcohol and drug use. Whether you're here due to a legal requirement or seeking personal growth, Prime for Life offers a respectful, non-judgmental space for self-reflection and learning.

​

We believe that education, not shame, inspires real change. This program helps participants explore their values, assess their choices, and take meaningful steps toward a healthier future.

WHAT MAKES PRIME FOR LIFE DIFFERENT?

  • Doable:
    Shifts attitudes, beliefs, and risk perceptions—bringing real behavior change within reach.

  • Informative:
    Uses research-based content presented in an easy-to-understand way, with real-life application.

  • Motivational:
    Offers self-assessment tools that help participants connect personal values with decision-making and understand what they may be risking.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

Our trained facilitators guide participants through three key areas:

  • Exploring: Gain awareness of your personal risk and how it relates to your current choices.

  • Protecting: Understand the progression of substance use and identify where you may be on that path.

  • Reflecting: Prepare for personal change through meaningful insight and goal-setting.
