Deadly Choices education programs empower Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students to make healthy choices for themselves and their families. The programs focus on Deadly Choices key messages to eat healthy, be physically active, not smoke or vape and access their local Community Controlled Health Service for a regular 715 Health Check.   

The range of programs are delivered to primary and secondary-aged participants in both school and community settings. Topics focus on different preventative health topics including healthy lifestyles, tobacco/vaping, nutrition, and traditional games. The programs span 8-10 weeks and are designed to progressively build upon each other, instilling cultural values and leadership to equip our younger community members with the tools needed to make Deadly Choices for a promising and healthy future.
