YC Online Training for Alcohol & Drug Prevention Strategies - We invite you to view YC’s one-hour training module on Alcohol & Drug Prevention Strategies. This training seeks to increase help-seeking and active bystander behaviors by increasing student knowledge and confidence when it comes to understanding risk factors, identifying risky behaviors, exploring personal motivations for making good choices, and learning how to stick to boundaries to support better choices.
