In the “NO” is the school and community educational component of the Drug Free Clubs of America strategy. It is a campaign for members and parents to learn more about many different drug-related themes. Having a better understanding on these matters helps teens to feel even more secure in making healthy decisions for themselves, and gives them the facts they may need to inspire others to make the same choice. Armed with this knowledge, teens are more likely to continue with their drug free lifestyles even when they are no longer being drug tested. Parents are included in this component to dispel myths, highlight differences from what they may have known about drugs in their own youth, and to help them keep an open dialogue with their child on substance related issues. If there is a drug or alcohol related topic you would like to know more about, please contact us today.
