 Western Queens Prevention Services (WQPS) is a New York State Office of Addiction Services and Supports (OASAS) certified program affiliated with Mental Health Providers of Western Queens, Inc.

​

We provide evidence-based social emotional learning programs for students of all ages (Kindergarten through High school) at no cost to schools. These programs facilitate students' personal growth, improve their resilience, increase their motivation for school success, help them to learn how to make better choices and improve social interactions. 

​

 

We also provide evidenced based parenting programs and workshops that help parents to learn how to discipline without punishment, how to avoid conflicts in the family by improving children's cooperation, thus reducing stress of parenting. 

 

​

 

We provide individual short-term counseling for kids, teens and young adults (under 21) to help them learn some mood management, improve 

their communication skills, improve their ability to make friends and to adjust to changes in their lives.
