Prevention & Education Programs

Preventing addiction before it starts is at the heart of Project Persevere’s mission. Educational initiatives, community workshops, and public awareness campaigns provide individuals, families, and schools with the knowledge and tools to recognize risk factors, make informed decisions, and build resilience. These proactive efforts aim to reduce stigma and promote healthier choices across all ages.

Mobile United’s Peer Link
Mobile United's Peer Link is a program that will select two students from 20 high schools (public, private, parochial, and home-schooled) to guide workshops, role-plays, and outreach that make drug prevention real and relatable. Teens receive training in facilitation, drug education, conflict resolution, active listening, and cultural sensitivity; they are supported by mentors and community partners, and will build an app co-developed with the first cohorts to connect students to help between sessions and inform system-wide prevention planning.
