The Maryland Chapter of Drug-Free World visited the children and young adults of the Boys and Girls Club of Baltimore in March 2017. Dr. Daniel Stewart, Summer Andrade and Judy De Libera presented a documentary about the dangers of drugs, in particular, Marijauna, to the children and teens. The documentary was narrated by former drug addicts.

After the movie, there was lively discussion about the types of things that can happen to a person if they start taking drugs and how quickly one can become addicted to drugs. After the discussion the students signed a pledge to live a drug-free life, to be a leader and encourage their friends and family members not to take drugs and to help educate others about the dangers of taking drugs.

At the end of the event, each student received several Truth About Drugs booklets to read and to distribute to their friends and family members. Learn more at drugfreeworldmaryland.org.
