Say "no" to drugs and "yes" to National D.A.R.E. Day - a day dedicated to promoting healthy choices and drug prevention education for our youth!
Get ready to stand up against drugs and violence on National D.A.R.E. (Drug Abuse Resistance Education) Day on September 15! This day was first established in 1983 by the Los Angeles Unified School District as a way to educate students about the dangers of drug use and promote positive decision-making skills. Since then, it has grown into a national observance that is celebrated in schools across the country, with special events and activities focused on empowering young people to say "no" to drugs and violence. So let's come together and make a difference in our communities on this important day!
