Make a difference with B.A.B.E.S.
Beginning Awareness Basic Education Studies (BABES) is a primary prevention program designed to give children a lifetime of protection from substance abuse.
BABES assists young people in developing positive living skills through providing them with accurate, non-judgmental information about the use and abuse of alcohol and other drugs. This helps children gain a better understanding on how to protect themselves from alcohol and chemically-dependent situations, along with other forms of abuse or risk behaviors.
The B.A.B.E.S. volunteers use puppets to provide accurate information presented in a manner designed to gain the attention of children and to enable them to develop good decision-making skills.
Subject titles for the program are Self-image and Feelings, Decision Making and Peer Pressure, Coping Skills, Alcohol and Other Drug Information, Getting Help, and Helping Children from Chemically-Dependent Homes.
The sessions are 7 weeks along, 2-3 hours a week during the school year.
