I learned that drugs don’t only affect the abuser but they also affect the people around them. Drugs are an evil thing and we need to do more and more about getting them off the streets and out of homes so many young children also struggle with addiction and it’s an awful sad addiction breaks many families apart gets children taken out of their homes some children even live in awful living conditions because of choices that their parents have chosen to make drugs ruined lives not many people recover but some do and the ones that recover are amazing and strong recovery is a hard and tough process but if someone sets their mom to it they can do it there are so many overdoses nowadays that that’s how almost everyone dies anymore drugs are in every area and it’s some thing that’s been here since the beginning

Answer: Drugs are a big bad either way you look at them,

DARE was initially designed for elementary school students, specifically fifth and sixth graders. Over the years, it has developed curriculum aimed at middle and high school students. The early focus of the program was to inoculate or strengthen children to resist the temptation of drug experimentation and the pressure of peers who want them to engage in drug use.

The primary goal of Drug Abuse Resistance Education (DARE) is to teach effective peer resistance and refusal skills so that adolescents can say “no” to drugs and their friends who may want them to use drugs. The secondary goals of the program are to build students’ social skills and enhance their self-esteem, as these are believed to be linked to adolescent drug use.

DARE was developed in 1983 as a joint effort between the Los Angeles County (Calif.) School District and the Los Angeles Police Department. In 1986, the U.S. Congress passed the Drug-Free Schools and Communities Act to promote drug abuse education and prevention programs across the country, and DARE spread rapidly, with many school districts adopting it for their students. By 1994, DARE was the most widely used school-based drug prevention program, showing up in all 50 states in the United States and spreading to six foreign countries
