Parent’s Handbook
In One Instant is an evidence-based award-winning, emotionally charged program that empowers teens to make smart choices and save lives by reducing distracted, impaired and reckless driving. By making the issues relevant, personal, and approachable, teens are compelled to take ownership of their decision making process and influence their friends to do the same. Our program is designed around the Health Belief Model – the idea that people only change their behaviors when they believe themselves to be at risk for serious consequences. To get someone to change their behavior, you have to convince them they’re at risk and then provide them with the tools they need to change their behavior. The program is also informed by the Theory of Planned Behavior, which predicts human behavior based on personal attitudes, peer group norms as well as other factors.
