View information about this organization

Service Description

Promotes injury prevention through reality education, enabling youth to recognize risk and make informed choices about activities and behaviours. PARTY was created to educate teens to the perils of risk-taking behaviour and the tragic consequences that can occur.

Students, 14 – 19 years old, experience a full day session, following the path of an injury survivor and meeting the professionals that would care for them in a trauma situation. Paramedics, emergency room physicians, nurses, and therapists describe the painful journey of a trauma patient. Facts are presented about head and spinal cord injury and students have hands-on experience with the equipment used in trauma care and rehabilitation. In the injury survivor presentation, young people talk frankly about their injuries, the events that lead to the injury, and what their lives are like after their injury. Students have the opportunity to ask questions of the speakers and learn what life is really like after an injury.

Eligibility

Youth 14 - 19 years of age.
