LifeSavers trains selected students from 9th through 12th grades (as well as middle school and college students) to be skilled listeners who can responsibly help other students deal with the emotional crises of adolescence. Students are not trained to be peer counselors, but to be listeners.
The program works because teenagers will talk to other teenagers first. Trained LS help by assisting peers to find viable solutions, by hanging with them until the moment of desparation passes.
The training is team approach to helping teenagers cope healthfully with the challenges of drugs and alcohol, peer and family relationships, sexual issues, violence, academic problems, death and grieving, aggression, anxiety, bullying, and suicide. THE PROGRAM WORKS! As a teacher, I see it in action almost daily.
