Two prevantative measures that can help in combating risk behaviors

Two preventive measures that can help combat risky behaviors are: involving the person in extracurricular activities and allowing the person to talk openly about anything.

Explanation:

Risky behaviors are particularly common among the adolescents because it is at this stage that they are mostly hasty when it comes to making decisions. So there's a high chance for them to engage in risky behaviors of cigarette smoking, alcohol drinking, illegal drugs, unprotective sex, etc. In order to prevent such untoward occurrence, it is best to have preventive measures.

If the person will be involved in extracurricular activities–other than academic activities, then the person will have no chance of thinking about risky behaviors. He will remain focused and busy. It's also a great way for him to nourish friendships with people of the same interest.

Another way is to allow the person to be open to you about anything. In order to do this, you have to be non-judgmental when listening. This will allow him to feel at ease and be comfortable about sharing whatever is troubling him. It will let him know that someone is listening and he won't feel alone. He'll also get the support and advice that he needs, which will prevent from doing risky behaviors.
