Primary Prevention:
The concept of Primary Prevention is to prevent hurtful and harmful behaviors or violence before it occurs by examining root causes.
Our goal is to work with the various communities within Grayson County to identify attitudes and beliefs that can promote and lead to violence. Our team is dedicated to creating and providing a safe, inclusive and encouraging environment that enhances empathy, conflict resolution and healthly emotions.
Our wish is for every individual in our community to be treated with respect in safe and healthy environments which leads to healthier relationships with family members, peers, romantic partners and most importantly, one’s self.
