Prevention & Education

Prevention is the best treatment

About Our Prevention Program

All of our prevention services are designed to meet the specific needs of patients in our care, other individuals, families and the community at large.

Keystone staff members would be more than happy to work themselves out of a job—which is why we devote as many resources as possible to preventative measures.

Through our work in schools and other community organizations, as well as our work with businesses learning to avoid selling to minors, we hope to drastically reduce substance use in York County. After all, it’s impossible to develop a substance use disorder if you never begin using drugs or alcohol.

Keystone’s Preventative Efforts

Keystone works to provide programs to educate individuals on how to heal, better care for themselves and how to avoid situations that might lead to reoccurrence.

Community education is the main tool that Keystone uses to prevent substance use disorders.

Our education programs, presentations and other resources help participants better understand drug and alcohol use and teach effective strategies for coping with genetic predisposition and other factors that contribute to substance use.

							I thought this place would be a joke intill i met Doug Miller. This class changed my life. Im drug free and feeling life for the first time. When i walked into this class i was rock bottom now im making 30 bucks a hour clean and have tools to help myself.
