Narconon Drug Prevention Ending Drug Use on Our School Grounds
Today's kids need the truth about drugs, and they need this while
they're young, before it's too late.
Every year 3 million young people (ages 10-14) try illegal drugs for
the first time. Alcohol and other drugs cost this nation $168 billion a year. That's $675
for every man, women and child.
To help turn this tide, Narconon has worked steadily since 1979 bringing drug
prevention education to school children. Each year skilled Narconon presenters reach over
100,000 people in schools, youth groups, corporations and civic groups.
Bob Wiggins, our lead prevention specialist has 'been there'. After a 14 year
history of drug abuse, Bob became rehabilitated through the Narconon Drug Rehabilitation
Program. Having completed the program, Bob trained as a Narconon counselor and spent 13
years counseling addicts. During this time he also began working with children to prevent
drug abuse and has reached over 450,000 kids in the past 13 years. It is this experience
that gives him credibility with kids, and enables him to aptly reach audiences of all ages
in conveying the real truth about drugs.
