PRIDES
PRIDES is a youth prevention universal program that serves both youth and adults within local schools and communities in Brewster, Culberson, Jeff Davis, Presidio and Hudspeth counties that have not been identified on the basis of individual risk. We help address health and wellness for youth, families, and communities by enhancing protective factors while reducing risk factors through promising, emerging, and /or evidence-based education and skills training. We enhance community awareness and mobilization around behavioral health.
