http://www.drcnet.org/DARE/

Extractions: The Drug Abuse Resistance Education (DARE) program in public schools is our nation's most prominent and visible attempt to educate young people to resist drug abuse. It reaches over 60% of elementary school children in the United States, and is far and away the most prevalent drug education program in use today. This site provides information and views on the DARE program not readily available through DARE or any official source. This page is not sponsored or endorsed by "DARE America," and we do not purport to speak for DARE. We hope parents will consider the following information when deciding whether or not their child should participate in DARE. Hopefully, school administrators and public officials will find this site a helpful source of information when deciding whether to rely on DARE for the important purpose of educating young people to resist drug abuse, justifying the significant sacrifice of academic time and public revenue. What is DARE? A brief history and description of the DARE program.

http://www.kidsource.com/kidsource/content2/appropriate.add.html

Extractions: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, National Institute of Mental Health Throughout this digest, ADD will be used to refer to "attention deficit disorder," or "attention deficit hyperactivity disorder" (ADHD). In the past, the term "minimal brain dysfunction" was also used. It is estimated that children with ADD constitute 3% to 5% of the current school-age population, which would represent 1.35 to 2.25 million children. Most experts agree that ADD is a neurobiological disorder that can have multiple causes. Research indicates that children with ADD are likely to have a biological relative with ADD. In addition, evidence also suggests that neurologic, neurochemical or, in some cases, toxic factors may be involved. Other factors such as medical conditions, medication side effects, familial functioning, or environmental conditions may exacerbate an existing disorder or contribute to the development of ADD-like problems in some children (Parker, 1992). Back to the Top As with all other disabling conditions, evaluation of children suspected of having ADD should be a multistep, multidisciplinary procedure. First the assessment should determine whether a child meets criteria for diagnosis of ADD; then, further assessment should determine the degree to which the child's educational performance is adversely affected. This information will help determine what types of educational services are necessary to assist the student.

Ron Hubbard's training and education technology was originally formulated to help students on Scientology courses.

Extractions: Personal accounts of family experiences Working with difficult psychedelic experiences Passages from life to death Resources on Young People and Drugs ... Participate Welcome to the MAPS Rites of Passage project, an alternative to the abstinence-only drug abuse prevention strategies currently dominating public discourse. Acknowledging that experimentation with consciousness is nearly universal, we believe that the creation of socially-sanctioned contexts for the beneficial uses of psychedelics and marijuana may be a powerful approach to reducing drug abuse. In other words, education about appropriate drug use may be more effective in reducing drug abuse than the pursuit of an undesirable and entirely unobtainable "Drug-Free" world. MAPS' Rites of Passage project is thus an effort to provide information to families, particularly parents and their adolescent children and young adults, about the potential benefits and risks of an educated and careful relationship with psychedelics and marijuana. The MAPS Rites of Passage project advances the idea that discussing potentially beneficial uses of psychedelics and marijuana is an effective technique in reducing haphazard or reckless use. Responsible decision-making must begin with honest and balanced dialogue, dialogue that reflects these substances' potential to be helpful or harmful. Simplistic answers like "Just say no" education and criminal prohibition not only fail to protect families, they can drive families apart. A family choice While we don't claim to have the answers to all the difficult questions surrounding psychedelic and marijuana use, we do believe that families must take a greater role in defining the place of these substances in society. We believe that adults should have the right to decide whether or not to experiment with psychedelics and marijuana. Furthermore, we believe that the family is the appropriate locus for decision-making about the use of substances by adolescents. While we recognize that not all minors live within healthy family systems, and we support the role of social service agencies intervening in cases of abuse and neglect, we nevertheless believe that within responsible limits, families should have priority over government in educating their children about drugs. We hope this site will provide families with useful and thought-provoking ideas and information.

Extractions: Judicial Education Programme on Transnational Drug Trafficking and Control In October 2001, thirty judges from fifteen African countries, including South Africa, participated in a Judicial Training Programme on drug-related case work in Southern and Eastern Africa, presented by the United Nations Office for Drug Control and Crime Prevention (UNODCCP) in partnership with Justice College, under the auspices of the Training Committee of the Judicial Service Commission. One of the topics addressed was the link between juveniles, illicit drugs and crime. Here is an except from the speech given by Judge Belinda van Heerden of the Cape High Court: "Article 33 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) obliges States Parties to take all appropriate measures 'to protect children from the illicit use of narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances' and 'to prevent the use of children in the illicit production and trafficking of such substances' . The discussion focussed on the role of the proposed new South African child justice system in attaining these objectives and in assisting this country to fulfil its international legal obligations, both under CRC, as also under the various international conventions on drug control to which South Africa is a party.
