What?

P.A.R.T.Y. is the acronym for Prevent Alcohol and Risk-Related Trauma in Youth.  It is a program that designed to give the students between 15 and 18 a snapshot of the possible traumatic and often preventable consequences of risk-related behaviour that can lead to injury.  The program is offered in French or English.

When?

The P.A.R.T.Y. program is offered on Thursdays and Fridays, 4-6 days per month, during the school calendar year.  The sessions run from 9am to 2:30pm.

Why?

The leading cause of injury and death of teenagers 15-20 is motor vehicle crashes with greater then 50% of them involving alcohol. We lose 800 teens a year to injury!
