Exploring Prevention Through a Social-Ecological Lens, Session 2

Exploring Prevention Through a Social-Ecological Lens, Session 2: Prevention in Connection - The Power of Relationships in Substance Use Prevention

Preventing substance misuse is not solely a matter of individual decision-making—it is shaped by the web of relationships that surround us. This session will examine substance use and overdose prevention through the interpersonal level of the Social-Ecological Model (SEM), emphasizing the critical role of families, peers, mentors, and social networks influencing behaviors and outcomes.

In this second session of a 4-part series, participants will explore how the quality and dynamics of interpersonal relationships can serve as powerful protective factors.  Moving beyond abstract theory, the session will present practical tools, evidence-based practices, and real-world applications.
