The
Drug Store Project
A
comprehensive middle school drug prevention program designed
to educate youth about the dangers of substance use and
abuse. It is an event where the community of Atwater comes
together to sponsor whit is one of the largest collaborative
prevention activities in our area.
The Drug Store Project is a day-long event focuses on
choices an individual can make when it comes to drug use
and abuse. The day focuses on the positive aspects of
remaining drug free and achieving goals. It is a series
of vignettes, which students experience firsthand. Each
vignette is approximately 12 minutes in length. The students
in groups of 30 systematically move through the “story
line” for the day. The stations of the story line
include: the Pharmacy, Juvenile Hall, the Courtroom, Probation/Counseling,
the Party, the Emergency Room, the Funeral Home and finally
the debriefing.
