   Students in the St. Louis Public Schools are at risk.  At school and at home, the predictors for drug abuse are unavoidable. Poverty, family conflict, a lack of commitment to school, behavior problems, and neighborhoods where drugs are easily accessible are all factors that put children in St. Louis at risk for abusing drugs and alcohol. The effectiveness of our programs is verified by research.

Through our volunteering and mentoring efforts, Discovering Options programs change the lives of the at-risk students we serve.  To learn more about the difference Discovering Options is making in the Saint Louis community please read our Winter Newsletter!

“Discovering Options has been a tremendous learning experience for me, too. I believe St. Louis to be a city deeply plagued by racial tension, one where the racial divide is still alive and well. Discovering Options bridges this gap.�--Rev. Sue Yarber, mentor and volunteer, on the impact of Discovering Options programs on at-risk youth in St. Louis
