“The best me is drug free.”
This week is National Red Ribbon Week, a community-based campaign to prevent substance abuse sponsored by the National Family Partnership. Now through October 31, join us as we spread the word about drug prevention to encourage youth and young adults to live drug free.
HOW CAN I SHOW MY SUPPORT?
The National Red Ribbon Campaign runs through October 31st, so you still have time to show your support.
Take The Pledge. The Ribbon Campaign is a community-based initiative. Parents and adults can participate by signing a pledge to talk to their children about drugs. Visit RedRibbon.org/Pledge/ to take the pledge today.
Community Events. Most schools in the community are participating with activities to educate students on the risks of drug abuse. If you’re in North Carolina, The NC Parent Resource Center is giving away free toolboxes for local businesses and organizations to participate in the national campaign.
