Teens in the Driver Seat® relies on the voices of teens talking to other teens to help save lives. Here’s a few reasons why peer-to-peer is the best way to deliver safety messages:

  • You can help reduce the risk of injury and death among your friends when you speak up
  • You have a voice and your friends listen to you
  • Peer helpers have more credibility and a better understanding of teen concerns and pressures

These pages are full of great resources for you to download and use, and it’s all FREE! We do ask you to request access so we may better track and develop useful and informative items. Request access now>
