Q: IS THE BOOSTER PROGRAMME OFFERED TO STATE SCHOOLS ONLY?
A: BOOSTER is available to all secondary state, private and church schools upon request and/or availability of resources.

Q: HOW ARE THOSE AT RISK IDENTIFIED?
A: People at risk are those who are exposed to an environment of substance misuse and addiction, have personality characteristics that might increase that risk, such as low self-esteem, and other social factors such as peer pressure. So, risk is present where there is an inter-relationship between the family and social background and personality characteristics.
