Student Prevention Leadership Teams

Student Prevention Leadership Teams (SPLT)

Student Prevention Leadership Teams (SPLT) are student-driven peer-to-peer prevention efforts based in high schools across Lenawee County.  Interventions focus on reducing underage drinking, reducing prescription and over-the-counter medication misuse and abuse, and reducing marijuana use among Lenawee County Youth.

For the 2017-2018 school year, five high schools organized SPLT: Adrian, Clinton, Madison, Onsted, and Sand Creek.

Marijuana Use Prevention

25 Things to Do Instead of Drugs

As part of their Marijuana Prevention Campaign, SPLT members handed out candy that listed alternatives to drug use.

Two cards rest against a bag of Smarties candy. One card shows the front, which says "Choose to be drug free." The other card shows the back, which lists "25 things to do instead of drugs."

Marijuana Trivia

Another SPLT created a Marijuana Trivia booth with questions on the risks of marijuana use and prizes for participation.

Class Clash

One High School SPLT created a Family Feud-style game show on Kahoot. Teams representing each grade were asked questions on the risks of marijuana use and the winning team won a pizza party.

Two teams of students stand before a projection screen. The screen shows the question "What are some symptoms that a person going through withdrawal can experience?" A poster proclaims "Class Clash."

Door Decorating Contest

After SPLT educated their peers on the risks associated with Marijuana use, the High School classrooms held a door decorating contest.
