Freedom from Chemical Dependency
Posted in As part of our Health Education program and ongoing commitment to prevention and wellness, health educators from FCD Educational Services are invited each year to work with our seventh, ninth and twelfth grade students. FCD (Freedom from Chemical Dependency) is a non-profit organization which has provided substance abuse prevention education for schools since 1976.
Part of the Community Library Speaker Series, this podcast is a recording of an FCD presentation for SAS parents from Monday, April 13, 2009. The first speaker on the podcast is Dr. Jeff Devens, SAS educational psychologist, who reviewed the results of a recently conducted student survey on alcohol use at SAS. Tim Ryan of FCD then offered parents support and guidance in helping their children to enjoy a drug-free adolescence and answered some questions from the audience. His topics included:
- Effective ways to communicate with your child about drugs and drug use
- Up-to-date facts about current drug use and trends
- What to say about your own experiences with alcohol and/or drug experimentation
- How to spot early warning signs of trouble and effective ways to respond
