4-Hour Substance Use Education Course

A simple, at-home way to learn, grow, and make better choices

OMNI is now offering a 4-hour psychoeducation course on substance use — a private, at-home program designed to help youth ages 10+ and families understand the facts about substance use, why it happens, and how to make positive changes.

This course is especially helpful for youth with a first offense or early signs of risky behavior, offering a preliminary step to get in front of the problem before it grows.

What You’ll Learn:

  • The real effects and risks of alcohol, vaping, and drug use

  • Why people start using and how to make healthier choices

  • How substance use impacts the mind, body, and relationships

  • Prevention & treatment options for long-term success

  • Whether you want to quit completely or cut back on unhealthy habits, SMART Recovery meets you where you are.

How It Works:

  • Complete the course at home — on your own or with a parent, counselor, teacher or mentor

  • A link will be sent once registered

  • Certificate of Completion provided at the end to show progress and success

Where:

  • This program is held virtually - you can take it at home, at school or wherever!

Cost:

  • Free for students with a school referral in Suburban Cook County

  • $50 for all other counties

Who:

  • Anyone 10+ in need of substance use support

  • Parents or guardians who want to learn how to help their child

  • Teachers, mentors, or youth advocates supporting students who may be at risk
