Do you know common spots where kids hide drugs and alcohol?
It may be where you least expect.
The Wake Up Call presentation provides practical information on current drug trends, a walk-through of a teens' bedroom with more than 20 red flags that could indicate substance abuse, and proactive parenting strategies to keep your child substance free.
The presenters, both with lived experience, combine their personal stories, experience working with students and families, and things they wish they would've known into an engaging, real and unique presentation.
This presentation is a MUST SEE for parents, grandparents, teachers, community members and other adults who are influential in the lives of youth. Attendees will also receive an ARC Handbook, a 30+ page comprehensive resource guide with current drugs trends, signs of abuse, hiding places and relevant paraphernalia, parenting tips and resources all in one place.
This presentation can presented in-person or in a virtual format.
“The information regarding specific drug identification and characteristics is priceless. Paired with bedroom, this presentation is perfectly informative!”
