A message from the CHS S.A.D.D. group:
DID YOU KNOW?
Children of parents who talk to their teens regularly about drugs are 42% less likely to use drugs than those who don’t; yet, only a quarter of teens report having these conversations.

Red Ribbon Week (October 23-31), the oldest and largest drug prevention campaign in the nation, is your opportunity to get the ongoing conversation started.

Life is a puzzle. Don’t let drugs be the piece that doesn’t fit. Stay focused, stay strong, and solve your future with drug-free choices. You have the power to complete the picture.
