P.A.R.T.Y.

Prevent Alcohol and Risk-Related Trauma in Youth (P.A.R.T.Y.) a youth injury prevention program created by Sunnybrook Centre for Injury Prevention is offered by TBRHSC Injury Prevention Team.

P.A.R.T.Y. Program provides valuable information through informative presentations from multiple community stakeholders invested in the area of injury prevention for youth.

There are two different options for P.A.R.T.Y. Program delivery at TBRHSC.

At-Hospital P.A.R.T.Y. Program

Local and regional high school students attend a half-day to full-day program at the hospital. They receive injury prevention presentations from multiple community partners and also visit areas in the hospital such as the emergency department and simulation lab.

The goal of the In-Hospital P.A.R.T.Y. Program is to educate youth about the risks associated with alcohol and drug consumption, in order to empower youth to make safer choices for themselves.

Classes of up to approximately 30 students may attend this option of programming.

At-School P.A.R.T.Y. Program

This option of P.A.R.T.Y. Program provides an opportunity for a larger amount of students to attend programming as is offered at the high school itself. 

Multiple community partners are situated throughout the high school classrooms and students rotate through the classrooms. Up to 200 students attend a full day At-School P.A.R.T.Y. Program.

This programming educates and empowers youth to make safer choices and minimizes risky behavior associated with alcohol and drug consumption.

Please note historically the approach to PARTY program youth injury prevention programming has contained graphic imaging and can be potentially triggering to youth who have experienced trauma. Current TBRHSC PARTY content has shifted its approach to a more positive and informative educational lense.
