Protect Your Family

As a parent, I want you to know how to protect your family from the most serious epidemic to hit this country in our lifetime….. substance abuse. It is literally destroying families in our country. You cannot ignore the dangers of alcohol and drug abuse to which your child will be exposed, if you do then you increase the likelihood that your child may fall victim to drug and/or alcohol abuse. As a parent, you must become educated on the dangers of alcohol and drug abuse, just as you would any other danger that might befall your child. You must also not be naïve to think that your child would never do that kind of thing. What parent ever believes that their child could do that kind of thing? The fact is, substance abuse among our youth is a very significant problem in our community and it crosses all socio-economic barriers. Every kid who attends a high school in Dearborn or Ohio County is exposed to illegal drug and alcohol abuse by their friends and classmates. The purpose of this flyer is to provide you with information on how you can protect your family. Please visit www.drugfree.org and learn all the necessary steps that you can take to protect your family. The most important thing you can do is to let your child know that you love them and that you do not want them to do drugs and alcohol because it will ruin their life. Letting your child know that you love them and care for them is the simplest and most effective way to protect your family. So please do your part. Visit www.drugfree.org and join us in protecting you and your family. Together we can make our community safe.
