What is Prime For Life® (Universal Precautions)
Prime For Life® (PFL) is a motivational and evidence-based intervention and risk reduction program. Prime for Life helps foster attitudes, beliefs, and understanding that helps people reduce risk for any type of alcohol or drug problem. It also creates a unique self-assessment experience to help people be more aware of what they value, what they are risking, and how to protect the things that mean the most in their lives.
It is best for people who have had a legal or policy violation such as impaired driving, drug possession, high school or college students/athletes who may benefit from a diversion program, but it is relevant for everyone.
The following bullet points illustrate learning opportunities within the PFL Universal Precautions Course:
*What Do I Value? *What Would Most People Say?
*Do I Have Increased Biological Risk Factors *Preventing Alcohol- and Drug-Related Problems
*Health Problems, Cancer Risk & Pregnancy *Impairment Problems
*My Values and Avoiding Personal Problems *My Message to the World and Myself
The most important portion of Prime For Life is the unique method of self-assessment. The program does not have a confrontational aspect, leaving attendees to draw their own conclusions about their personal risks, conduct, etc. The aspect of having someone “tell them what to do” is removed, leaving factual information, peer to peer conversation and self-reflection for attendees to determine their risk level and how that effects what they value most in life.
