In the Schools

All of Keystone’s holistic treatment programs include a significant education and mentorship component so that patients can learn how to heal, how to better care for themselves and how to avoid situations that might lead to reoccurrence. The Keystone Prevention Center also works closely with partner organizations to provide evidence-based education and prevention programs in schools and in the community.

Keystone provides programs in a variety of formats available in schools, including LifeSkills Training and Prime for Life Youth Program.
