This program incorporates the goals and objectives of drug prevention as specified by the Texas Prevention Curriculum Guide: Drug and Violence Education (DAVE) which was developed with Safe and Drug Free School's funds under a grant from the U.S. Department of Education (September '97). The students will:

1.) Gain knowledge essential for making legal, safe, and healthy decisions about drug use.
2.) Learn about examples of attitudes and behaviors which prevent drug use.
3.) Learn skills and strategies which will prevent drug use.
4.) Be encouraged to develop and practice a personal plan to remain drug free.

This program, as well as the Conflict Resolution and TAKS programs, can be modified to make it age appropriate for K-12. Follow up lesson plans for this program, as well as other programs, are available.
