Wayne Central Middle School

What is the school based prevention program?

The school-based counseling program addresses a number of protective factors by teaching skills, information dissemination, education, positive alternatives and early intervention. Counselors are able to have direct contact and involve students who may be "at risk" for substance abuse within the context of the school environment. Risk factors include: students who have a family member(s) struggling with a substance-use disorder; students who are exhibiting risky behaviors including experimenting or using substances more regularly and socializing with a peer group involved in substance-use; students who are in need of outpatient treatment and can be helped to access outside services; students who could benefit from relapse-prevention after returning from a treatment program or need support for abstinence. In doing so, Delphi counselors can involve students in the counseling process who might not otherwise have access to preventative services.

 

We are able to provide assessments, individual counseling services, group counseling, evidence-based programs, and referrals. Delphi Counselors are proficient in organizing community awareness events including, but not limited to, health fairs, speakers, panels, and parent education. We are here not only to support students but can be a resource to the school district and community as a whole.

 

The Prevention Staff at Delphi are Trauma Informed, trained in working with trauma and adverse childhood experiences. The focus of our service delivery is sensitive to these experiences and the impact it has. Our approach focuses on what has happened... not... what is wrong.
