Project ALERT
Easy to adopt -
Proven to work
The
Tennessee Constable supports Project ALERT as a replacement to
the Drug Awareness Resistance Education (DARE) that is or was
previously offered in many schools.
The core strategies include motivating students against drug
use, providing skills and strategies to resist drugs, and
establishing new non-use attitudes and beliefs. This is a two
year program with fourteen lessons (11 core and 3 booster
programs).
Project ALERT is a nationally recognized, middle grade
presentation program that gives students insight, understanding
and actual skills for resisting substance abuse.
Named an Exemplary Model Program, Project ALERT is proven to
reduce the onset and regular use of substances among middle
grade youth. The two-year, fourteen-lesson program focuses on
the substances adolescents are most likely to use; alcohol,
tobacco, marijuana and inhalants. The success of Project ALERT
is evidenced by the fact that more than 24,000 educators use the
program each year.
