Project Choice is a program designed to educate elementary and middle school youth about alcohol, tobacco and drug addiction, and the life skills necessary to make healthy decisions about these substances. Our educators have worked in the San Francisco public school system since 1983, and in the area's private schools since 1998.
This innovative program is designed to reach students age 8-13 before they have begun experimenting with addictive substances and before their attitudes have become fixed and thus difficult to change.
Project Choice:
- provides objective information about alcoholism and other drug addictions
- realistic consequences of drug use on the mind and body
- social skills to assist youth in handling peer pressure
- empowers youth to make their own decisions inspired through building self-esteem
- provides information about the short and long-term consequences of using alcohol, drugs and tobacco
- assists youth in understanding the disease of addiction, and that alcoholics are ill -- rather than bad or weak
- teaches refusal skills to resist peer pressure and pressures that come from social influences such as advertising
Schools interested in Project Choice education and individual consultations offered by the Youth and Family Department of NCADA-BA are invited to contact us at 415-296-9921. You may also Email us at info@pcyouth.org
