Drug-Free Tennessee Reaching Out to Parents
Drug-Free Tennessee provides materials to educate parents and their children about the hazards of drugs.
Nashville, TN, August 17, 2017 --(PR.com)-- This past weekend, Drug-Free Tennessee participated in an annual event for parents of school children, where they distributed copies of The Truth About Drugs booklets to parents, teachers and children alike.
“We need to spread a positive drug-free message to parents and their children,” says Brian Fesler, regional coordinator for Drug-Free Tennessee. “This is vital to halt drug abuse and especially the opioid epidemic that is sweeping this state and country.”
DFT has been out in the community, handing out information and spreading the word. “Education is the best offense,” says Fesler.
DFT is the local chapter of the Foundation for a Drug-Free World (FDFW), an international organization based in Los Angeles, and has as its mission to educate people about the dangerous effects of drugs so they understand and can make informed choices on the subject. At the heart of the campaign are the Truth About Drugs booklets, 13 fact-filled booklets that, without scare tactics, inform about drugs, empowering young people to make their own decisions to live drug-free.
Fesler says, “There is a need in our communities to educate everyone on drugs - drugs impact all our lives in one way or another. That’s why it is important for all of us to work together.” For more information on Drug-Free Tennessee, visit drugfreetn.org.
