NEW Free Online Parent Drug Prevention Training Launched by The Courage to Speak®Foundation
This new Online Parent Training Module will allow the Courage to Speak programming, trainings and presentations to have a further reach than ever before, ensuring that parents are equipped with the skills necessary to keep their children safe from the dangers of drugs. Parents learn about the drug and opioid epidemic happening in America, how to tell the signs of drug use, how to effectively communicate with their children about the dangers of drugs and much more!
Parents are in desperate need of drug prevention tools in order to combat this opioid and drug crisis, reduce problem behaviors among their children and enhance their children’s and school’s achievement. With the opioid epidemic affecting over 1 million youth and accounting for nearly 68% of the total 70,237 drug overdose deaths in 2017, as reported by the CDC, it is critical for parents to start the conversations about the dangers of drugs with their children.
