Community Outreach Prevention

Education and Development (COPED)

Prevention continues to be the key element in resolving youth issues such as substance abuse and violence.  Time and time again, Sanctuary has continually applied this technique and approach with success.  COPED staff work to help young people by providing outreach, education and prevention programs in their community and school.  COPED provides substance abuse and violence prevention services with a culturally diverse and sensitivity model focusing on science based services.

COPED also provides multi-workshops and seminars for all of Sanctuary's clients as well as the general community.  Requests can be made for a workshop or seminar on a variety of different topics related to drugs and alcohol.  The workshops vary in length and can be tailored to the needs of the customers.
