Friend,
Whether in or outside the classroom, we understand the critical role that teachers play in protecting the health of children and can all agree that harm reduction-based approaches to education are needed now more than ever.
Last fall, we released Safety First: Real Drug Education for Teens, the nation’s first harm reduction-based drug education curriculum for high school teachers. Since then it has been downloaded thousands of times, received positive feedback, and is being used by teachers and students across the country.
Take our interactive quiz and see if what you learned in drug ed measures up to Safety First.
The COVID-19 pandemic has revealed many of the challenges that come with providing education outside the classroom. And mass protests against racist police killings present an important moment to reassess drug disciplinary policies and the reliance on punishment in our schools, especially among Black children.
To help meet the challenges of these unprecedented times, we just launched a distance learning version of Safety First: Real Drug Education for Teens – register here to get the curriculum.
Thank you for your support. Together, we are proud to be providing accurate, honest, and compassionate drug education even during these challenging times.
