AN EFFECTIVE DRUG EDUCATION AND DRUG PREVENTION PROGRAM

Drug Prevention Booklets

A key component of the Say No to Drugs, Say Yes to Life program is a series of educational booklets. Millions have been published since 1991 and today are available in 20 languages. By providing facts about the dangers of the most abused drugs, these booklets have a positive impact on young people. Many have told our volunteers that after reading one of the booklets, they either stopped taking drugs or decided not to start in the first place.
