I Choose Me Campaign

For some kids, it’s music. Others – it’s all about sports.

What does your teen choose instead of trying alcohol, marijuana or misusing prescription medication?

Every day, young people are bombarded with all kinds of messages from friends, the entertainment industry, social media, the Internet, and more.

How can parents prevent their kids from trying alcohol, marijuana, or misusing prescription medication?

Well, 80 percent of kids say that parents or caregivers have a significant influence on their decisions.

So, stay involved. Keep talking to them.

You can continue encouraging your kids to choose themselves, their dreams, and their passions above drugs.

Visit our helpful links section for resources and ideas for keeping the conversation going.
