Better Without It

This template gives you the complete Better Without It youth diversion and prevention flow — the same journey the licensed program runs, ready the moment you create it.

Why use it

If your organization runs Better Without It, this is the fastest way to start: every stage of the student journey is already in place, so your team can take the first referral on day one instead of building the flow by hand.

What it covers

The flow follows a student from first contact to graduation:

  • Reaching the family — contacting parents to begin intake, with a place for cases where contact doesn't land.
  • Scheduling — sending a scheduling link and waiting for confirmation.
  • Consent paperwork — sending, reviewing, and completing the consent forms.
  • Active sessions — the student attends weekly sessions, with room to put a case on hold when life happens.
  • Graduation — scheduling the graduation appointment and recording the outcome, good or bad.

Cases that stall or withdraw have clear resting places along the way, so nothing lingers half-finished on the board.

There's a full program guide

Better Without It has its own step-by-step playbook on this site — how intake, groups, and graduation work day to day. Start with the Better Without It program guide.
