DIOCESE OF BROOKLYN DRUG ABUSE PREVENTION PROGRAM:
Program for the Development of Human Potential (PDHP)

There is no simple answer to drug use and drug abuse.  Parents, teachers, and students must all work together.  At PDHP, we help make that happen.  Through group programs and one-on-one counseling, we equip parents, teachers, and youth for the all-too-real struggles of adolescence. Our comprehensive approach to educational and counseling services aims to empower students and their families to make healthy life choices.

"Guidance, counseling, and collaboration have been the priceless benefits of my relationship with the Program for the Development of Human Potential.  As a veteran teacher and principal of St. Matthias, the program has been a stable source of support and assistance for my students and families at risk."
- Barbara Wehnes, Principal of St. Matthias School

"PDHP has helped to make my teaching experience more efficient and enjoyable.  The services that PDHP provides to our students are beneficial to teachers, students, and families in general."
- Kimberly A. Carlo, teacher at St. Raphael School
