Sources of Strength Club

Sources of Strength is a strength-based, comprehensive wellness program that focuses on suicide prevention but impacts other issues such as substance abuse and violence.  The program is based on a relational connections model that uses Peer Leaders mentored by Adult Advisors to encourage students to individually assess and develop strengths in their life.  

The program uses a fun-filled style of active learning and schoolwide campaigns to encourage open discussion about the problems that youth face and what positive factors they can access for help.

Contact Jen.Luecke or Denise Rueckert for more information.
