A Global Substance Misuse Prevention Organization
“Two Roads diverge in a yellow wood… I took the road less traveled by , And that has made all the difference.” — Robert Frost

PASSION, EXPERIENCE, DILIGENCE

Pathways for Prevention was founded by a group of highly experienced substance misuse prevention educators. Each has served hundreds of school communities throughout the world delivering substance misuse education programs and comprehensive prevention consultation. Our mission-driven Prevention Specialists continue to educate and empower individuals, families, and communities to make informed decisions about their health and well-being.

We strive to create a safe and supportive environment that increases protective factors that reduce the risk of substance misuse and identify and address factors that increase the risk of substance misuse. Through evidenced-based programs and partnerships, we aim to reduce the prevalence of substance misuse and its negative impact on individuals, families, and society.
