Our Story

Ray Lozano grew up in a family deeply entrenched in the world of drugs and alcohol. From drug traffickers to addicts, he saw firsthand the destructive impact substance abuse had on his loved ones. Unlike many, Ray never saw the so-called “good side” of drugs. At an early age, he made a pivotal decision: “I don’t think drugs work.”

​

This realization shaped his future. As a high school senior, Ray gave his first drug prevention presentation. It was such a hit that his teacher asked him to present to other grades. That moment sparked a lifelong passion for educating others and building a speaking business that would change lives.

​

Years later, Ray realized his mission was bigger than just his voice—it was about creating a ripple effect. By training other speakers, he could reach even more students and communities. That’s how Prevention Plus was born.

​

Today, our team carries forward Ray’s dedication to delivering high-quality, research-backed information in a way that’s engaging and easy to understand. Together, we’re helping students see the power of informed choices and a drug-free life.

The Information

At Prevention Plus, we are driven by an unwavering commitment to uncovering the highest quality information. Our journey began with a deep curiosity and a refusal to settle for anything less than the best. This determination led us to master the art of dissecting studies—evaluating funding sources, scrutinizing methodologies, and sifting through extensive research to extract just a single nugget of reliable, fact-based information. But we don’t stop there. Once we have that golden nugget, we transform it into a story or analogy that’s so clear, even a middle-schooler could grasp it with ease.

​

This dedication ensures that everything we share is not only accurate and unbiased but also simple and engaging for any audience. When you invite a Prevention Plus speaker, you can rest assured you’re bringing in more than a presenter—you’re bringing in a trusted guide to deliver meaningful, impactful, and crystal-clear insights. With us, you can feel confident knowing your audience will leave informed, inspired, and ready to make positive changes.

Studies show that humor is one of the most effective tools for engaging young people, creating a lasting impact that goes far beyond the moment. That's why we weave jokes and personal stories into our presentations—they’re not just there for laughs; they’re there to make the message stick. Neuroscience tells us that as the brain matures, it processes information differently. What clicks with adults might feel alien to a teenager, and that’s where we come in. We connect with students on their level, speaking their language and respecting the unique challenges they face.

​

Rather than lecturing or belittling, we engage with empathy and authenticity, creating a space where they feel seen and understood. This approach isn’t just intuitive—it’s backed by science as a proven way to convey information effectively. When you choose a Prevention Plus speaker, you’re choosing more than a message; you’re choosing a connection that ensures the lessons we share will be remembered and applied long after the presentation ends.
