 Addiction Prevention Program for Youth

 

Project H.A.P.P.Y. brings together junior high and high school students to educate them on the dangers of what high risk use in alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs are.  H.A.P.P.Y. also teaches them the necessary skills needed in making informed decisions, and to offer them activities and ideas for healthy alternatives to alcohol and other drug use. By participating in this Program they see there are other persons equally committed to being drug free, and there are many adults who care about them and want to help them stay drug free.  H.A.P.P.Y. Clubs meet regularly at all middle schools in Findlay and Hancock County throughout the school year.  These clubs convene in November every year for Project H.A.P.P.Y. Weekend, a 2-day retreat of learning, games, drama performances, a dance, and building relationships with new friends.  The aim of HAPPY Weekend is to show students that they can not only deal with the pressures of life, but have fun and excel without the use of any mind-altering substance.
