A peer-led drug and alcohol prevention program is offered at the school in your community.
 
  At a school board meeting you are
  attending, a parent confronts the board and demands that the
  program be shut down because she does not want her child being
  counseled by another student. How would you respond?
  A. Agree with the parent.
  B. Explain your professional background. Share that peer-led
  programs may possess greater potential for primary prevention
  than teacher-led ones.
  C. Share that peer-led programs yield twice as much student selfdisclosure
  among participants as teacher-led ones, which can
  only help the participants.
  D. Share that studies comparing teacher-led and peer-led
  prevention interventions have resulted in mixed findings, so the
  parent might be right.
