E-Newsletter



*Welcome to the February edition of the Drug Free Action Alliance
**E-Newsletter.
You are receiving this monthly email due to your dedication to
the promotion of healthy alcohol and drug-free lifestyles and your
commitment to the improvement **of your community. Please feel free to
forward to others **who may benefit from this information.*





 In the company of numerous state leaders, Danielle Smoot of Cole's
Warriors (Clark County) and a member of the SPCA Advisory Council, speaks
to the crowd at the *Start Talking!* kick-off on January 21 at the Upper
Arlington High School.



*Start Talking!* is an effort being championed by Gov. John Kasich and
First Lady Karen Kasich, aimed at preventing drug abuse among our children.
Under Gov. Kasich's leadership, and in partnership with the Ohio General
Assembly and other statewide officeholders, Ohio has made it a priority to
attack our state's drug problem.



This new youth drug prevention initiative encourages Ohioans to embrace
programs focused at raising awareness and encouraging conversation to stop
drug abuse before it starts. Know! Parent Tips and TEACHable Moments are
two of the spotlighted programs as part of the Start Talking! initiative.

The Youth Advisory Council of the Ohio Youth-Led Prevention Network (OYLPN)

combat the common 'everyone is doing it' misperception and to empower youth
to be more vocal about their choice to live a healthy lifestyle.

substance abuse prevention programs in order to develop and strengthen the
youth-led substance abuse prevention efforts at local, state and national
levels.

*Know! The Teen Dating Bill of Rights*



Does your son or daughter know what to expect from a "dating" partner? Have
you discussed with your child the characteristics of a healthy dating
relationship?



While it is easy to make light of adolescent boyfriend/girlfriend
relationships, it may be a risky notion; as statistics show that one in
three teens experience an abusive dating relationship prior to high school
graduation.
