Mission Statement

The Foundation for a Drug-Free World is a nonprofit public benefit corporation that empowers youth and adults with factual information about drugs so they can make informed decisions and live drug-free.

Description

No one, especially a young person, likes to be lectured about what he or she can or cannot do. Thus, we provide the facts that empower youth to choose not to take drugs in the first place. Additionally our Truth About Drugs campaign consists of activities that they can join which popularize drug-free living. These activities are simple, effective and can involve people of all ages.

Through a worldwide network of volunteers, 50 million of drug prevention booklets have been distributed, tens of thousands of drug awareness events have been held in some 180 countries and Truth About Drugs public service announcements have been aired on more than 500 television stations. These materials and activities have helped people around the world learn about the destructive side effects of drugs and thereby make the decision for themselves to not use them.

The Foundation provides information you need to start a Truth About Drugs education and prevention activity in your area.

Hi I was recently in the area of Brownsville Me. To visit my son Last year I had to get him away from me. He had developed a heroine addiction along with just about anything else to help him cope with his life and now I find out that he has been introduced to Chrystal Meth. I know about the drug and I know that I will be having to bury my son in the not to far future. It is a very rural area with a very poor job market and it seems to be a place where people who have everything that a person could want and then you look a little bit deeper into their surroundings they have boats, jet skis, snowmobiles, cars, trucks, giant smart TVs and sound systems but not much of the stuff is new and is usually something that they have acquired for a drug debt owed to them the inside of the houses are in mid stages of remodeling and I realize now that they are dealing Chrystal Meth. I am not just talking about 6-10 people that hang out together I am talking about towns and counties like this.
