Forge your own path
“Ambition is the path to success. Persistence is the vehicle you arrive in.”

Life Lanes is a program designed to provide prevention for substance abuse and recovery support to middle school students in 6th-8th grade.
We provide a 15 session curriculum using evidence based Botvin LifeSkills Training, filled with practical resources and information on substance use and ways to develop a positive path. Some of the topics include:
- Develop a positive self-image
- Make informed decision
- Avoid harmful substances
- Manage stress and anxiety
- Resist peer pressure and media influences
- Build confidence in social situations and relationships
We couple this curriculum with a weekly support group for students who are affected by substance abuse or have family members who are impacted by substance abuse which is facilitated by Crown Counseling.
Lastly, we offer after school programming using the LivTrue curriculum which provides life skills, character building, a guide for making healthy choices, and steps on how to build a positive legacy.
