S.T.R.O.N.G. Chapters
Prevention Starts Early
Chapters is STRONG Youth’s school-based prevention model serving students in grades K–8. Rooted in social-emotional learning, brain science, and youth development, Chapters equip young people with the tools to understand themselves, manage emotions, and make healthy decisions before high-risk behaviors take hold.
Delivered during the school day and through extended learning opportunities, Chapters integrates engaging, hands-on programming that builds self-awareness, strengthens peer relationships, and promotes a sense of safety and belonging. By partnering closely with schools, Chapters supports not only individual students—but entire school communities—in creating environments where young people can thrive.
