A different kind of P.A.R.T.Y.

Working across the Territory to prevent alcohol and risk-related trauma in youth.

About the
Program

P.A.R.T.Y. program was developed in Canada in 1986 and research shows learning at P.A.R.T.Y. has a positive and lasting impact on the choices young people make.

In the Territory P.A.R.T.Y. is an initiative of the National Critical Care and Trauma Response Centre (NCCTRC) and the Northern Territory Government. Together NCCTRC and the NTG are working to minimise alcohol related harm and the effect of trauma on youth.
