HOW NATURAL HIGH WORKS
We believe in the power of storytelling to transform lives.
We engage storytellers who kids admire and trust and work with these influencers to create free and impactful content for educators and parents.
Our evidence-based program is used in all 50 states and makes use of current scientific findings on youth behavior, brain development, social norming, and substance abuse prevention.
Over 80% of kids said that having a natural high would help them fight the temptation to turn to substance abuse, and 84% said that after participating in our program, they intended to make better decisions.

POWERFUL STORYTELLING
Positive stories from key influencers have a powerful part to play in helping young people make the right choices. Natural High shares these stories via short, free videos for educators to use in the classroom and for parents to watch with their kids at home.
-
TOOLS FOR EFFECTIVE ENGAGEMENT
Our curriculum includes activities that directly engage young people through two-way communication and that have a lifespan beyond the initial viewing of a video or hearing of a story. Each piece of content we offer has relevant questions and discussion topics associated with it.
-
POSITIVE ALTERNATIVE TO DRUGS & ALCOHOL
When it comes to issues around substance abuse, kids need to be engaged in a positive way, to be steered towards that which inspires them rather than simply deterred. Natural High is dedicated to bringing the power of positive example to young people’s lives by delivering stories that help kids find their own ‘natural highs’ and that give them the skills to live life well.
-
SKILLS TO LIVE LIFE
WELLIt is not any one thing but rather a combination of factors that ultimately leads young people to have the courage to avoid drug and alcohol abuse. Our curriculum focuses on these protective factors, giving young people a well-rounded skill set that is rooted in the latest research on drug prevention.
