Join The One Choice Community
The One Choice Community is a growing collection of prevention organizations, coalitions, and individual leaders who have integrated the One Choice prevention message into their own prevention initiatives.
One Choice is not a program but a data-driven, youth-led prevention message that centers on the health of young people developed by the Institute for Behavior and Health (IBH).
The One Choice message has been incorporated into local prevention initiatives and activities in a growing number of states and countries.
Why the One Choice message?
Offers a clear health standard of no-use supported by the science of the developing brain
Supports all other prevention efforts
Promotes teen self-care and autonomy
Provides an opportunity to develop teen leadership
Builds on the trend created by American youth over the past four decades
Anyone and everyone can make One Choice:
Youth who have never used any substance
Youth who may have used in the past but are making One Choice today
Youth with substance use problems actively making One Choice, including those in early and long-term recovery
