Working Together for Our Children

There is no denying that students in our community are involved in drug and alcohol use. This problem, however is not unique to South Fayette. Underage drinking and drug use occurs everywhere. This program is designed to OPEN OUR EYES to this fact and equip us to take action - in our homes, schools, and community. Your attendance at this event is the first step in addressing this widespread problem.
Through a series of breakout sessions with individuals highly experienced in dealing with adolescent drug and alcohol use, we hope to inform and educate parents about what to look for, the best preventative measures to take and where to turn for help if you suspect or know your child is using drugs or alcohol.

Topics this evening will include:
A Parent’s Perspective on Drug and Alcohol Use
Enabling Drug and Alcohol Use
Where to Turn to for help, evaluation and treatment
A police department perspective of what is happening in our community and what parents can do to help.
Present and future consequences for adolescent drug and alcohol use
What resources are available for students and parents through South Fayette School District
The program will include break out sessions and an opportunity for questions, answers and dialogue with our presenters and other school, healthcare and law enforcement professionals.
