Prevention One-Pagers

At UConnectCare, we work to support drug and alcohol addiction prevention efforts throughout Western New York. Prevention is one of the most powerful and effective ways to help reduce the impact that addiction and substance abuse can have on individuals of all ages.

Our prevention philosophy is based in science, which is why we work to present factual and research-based information that is data-driven and outcome focused. This also allows us to provide programs and support that help to identify risks based on known factors and develop preventative, educational resources to further the goal of prevention.

Below are our latest prevention flyers, handouts and information sheets. Feel free to print these out or email them to friends, family members or colleagues for use in your own prevention campaigns and efforts.
