The Peer Health Educators (PHEs) are a diverse group of 45 UVa students
trained to educate their classmates about college health and wellness
issues in a positive, interactive, fun and nonjudgmental manner.
An interactive
outreach program can help your group to increase their awareness of
health-enhancing behaviors on a variety of topics. PHEs facilitate interactive
and informative outreach presentations for groups of students in residence
halls, fraternities, sororities, student organizations, and classrooms.
Alcohol
and Drug Abuse Prevention Team (ADAPT)
ADAPT
is dedicated to addressing the issues of alcohol and other drug abuse
in the University of Virginia community. As peer educators, we promote
awareness, provide educational outreach, and serve as accessible resources
for our fellow students. Our primary purpose is to minimize the abuse
of alcohol and other drugs in an effort to promote a healthier environment
at our University.
Student
Athlete Mentors (SAMS)
The Student
Athlete Mentor Program is a peer education program designed to train
student athletes in substance abuse prevention and to create a safer
social environment for students at the University. SAMs learn to recognize
signs of problematic drinking and drug behavior and appropriate ways
to intervene. They develop proactive measures to reduce the negative
consequences related to the abuse of alcohol and other drugs and serve
as resources for their teammates for information and services within
the University.
