above

Rise Above Colorado is a statewide prevention organization that measurably impacts teen perceptions and attitudes about the risks of substance misuse to help youth make empowered, healthy choices. Our vision is youth who realize their full potential.

This requires more than “just say no.” It requires lots of skills, information, and a safe space to ask questions and share stories, thoughts and feelings. The Rise Above Colorado Teen Action Council seized the opportunity of creating a website with interactive features to support teens’ wellness and potential. So, welcome and please engage with us by posting your comments, questions and stories!

How To

Rise Above

Despite what much of media tells us, teens make awesome choices every day! But, rising above is not always an easy thing. With all of life’s challenges, navigating unexpected turns can be really hard and staying on point with one’s purpose gets harder and harder. Maintaining the strength and awareness of all the potential that life holds for each of us requires great skill and support. That is why we have created a “toolbox” section of this site, called How To Rise Above. Some pages share skills we’ve tested out to handle challenges we’ve experienced and others are about skills we use to cultivate strength and possibility every day.
