About Planet Youth Timiskaming
Planet Youth Timiskaming is based on the Icelandic Prevention Model, a world-renowned approach to reduce alcohol and drug use among young people and improve their wellbeing.
It was pioneered in Iceland over 20 years ago — since then, Iceland’s youth substance use rates have gone from 48% to less than 5% in 2023.
The approach aims to create healthy communities for children and youth, with a focus on strengthening protective factors such as positive relationships with family and friends, involvement in extracurricular activities, and school engagement.
