Description

Teen bedrooms can hide signs of drug and alcohol use. Learn common drug trends and what to look for. The rise in the use of vaping devices and other substances among youth is a growing concern. Are you familiar with carts? Dabs? If you have young people in your life, you should be. The Wake Up Call presentation, a program of Your Choice, provides practical information on current drug trends, a walk-through of a teens bedroom with more than 50 red flags that could indicate substance use, as well as proactive parenting strategies to keep your child substance free. The presenters, with lived experience, combine their personal stories, experience working with students and families, and sharing things they wish they would've known into an engaging, real and unique presentation. This presentation is a MUST SEE for parents, grandparents, teachers, community members and other adults who are influential in the lives of youth. Your Choice to Live, Inc, is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization committed to substance use prevention. It is our mission to provide awareness, prevention education, resources and support to youth, parents, schools and communities in regard to alcohol and drug use.  Through these educational and prevention efforts, we will help shape healthy, responsible and successful future generations who are equipped with the necessary resiliency and decision making skills to make good choices in all aspects of their lives.
