D.A.R.E. Program
This
year millions of school children around the world will benefit from
D.A.R.E. (Drug Abuse Resistance Education), the highly acclaimed
program that gives kids the skills they need to avoid involvement in
drugs, gangs, and violence.
D.A.R.E. was founded in 1983 in Los Angeles and has proven so
successful that it is now being implemented in 75 percent of our
nation's school districts and in more than 43 countries around the
world.
D.A.R.E. is a police officer-led series of classroom lessons that
teaches children from kindergarten through 12th grade how to resist
peer pressure and live productive drug and violence-free lives.
