Event Description

Project Toward No Drug Abuse (TND) is a highly interactive program designed to help high school youth (14 to 19 years old) resist substance use. A school-based program, TND consists of twelve 40- to 50-minute lessons that include motivational activities, social skills training, and decisionmaking components that are delivered through group discussions, games, role-playing exercise, videos, and student worksheets. Project TND teaches participants increased coping and self-control skills that allow them to—

Grasp the cognitive misperceptions that may lead to substance use and express a desire not to abuse substances
Understand the sequence of substance abuse and the consequences of using substances
Correct myths concerning substance use
Demonstrate effective communication, coping, and self-control skills
State a commitment to discuss substance abuse with others
