In addition to lessons on Alcohol, Bullying, and Marijuana the Elks Teen Drug Awareness site is so much more than a website. It’s a comprehensive educational resource for parents, teachers, and youth.
Once you get to the site, you’ll have the opportunity to register and create lesson plans, take quizzes, play games, watch videos and so much MORE.
Starting with one of the videos from the site, here are just a few of the resources you’ll find when you look under the cover and I encourage you to take advantage of this wealth of knowledge and be proactive in the future and safety of our youth.
