f YOU'RE not talking with your child about drugs, and helping them make good choices about vaping, smoking or drinking, they're probably getting that information from other kids.
Darla DeLeon is the Co-founder and CEO of non-profit Steered Straight Inc.
In this interview she talks about Steered Straight school assembly programs that aim to steer youth straight, by giving them information about what substances really do to their bodies, and a learning experience about the reality of substance abuse.
The assemblies give young people what they need to make positive, informed choices.
Steered Straight is the #1 booked school drug prevention in America.
Steered Straight also offers books called Table Talk and Dashboard Conversations to help parents talk to their kids about the hard topic of drug and substance use.
