Reduction of anxiety and confusion about forming appropriate boundaries in relationships, a better understanding of the dangers of high-risk behaviour involving alcohol, drugs and early or reckless sexual activity. Benefits extend directly to: • Programme participants as increased knowledge and understanding facilitates a modification of behaviour in young adults. • In the case of leaders, information and skills acquisition provides a greater confidence in and ability to influence the attitudes and behaviour of young people. • Medical professionals should have less education and treatment to administer as a result of less young people indulging in high risk behaviour. • Families who will suffer less trauma from the consequences of addiction and high risk behaviour from their members.
