The Drug Free Marshals is a youth drug-education and prevention program that informs children about the dangers of drugs, and challenges them to remain drug-free. They demonstrate their commitment by being “sworn in” as Drug-Free Marshals, pledging to remain drug free and to encourage their peers to do the same.

This is the fourth year the Foundation participated in these Back to School events.
The events are intended to help get the parents and kids ready for the new school year. The role of the Foundation for a Drug-Free World is to give the kids the tools they need to say no to drugs and have a productive, drug-free school year.

“Youth are starting to experiment with drugs at a younger and younger age. We want to reach them before drugs do,” said Julieta Santagostino the director of the Florida Chapter of the Foundation for a Drug-Free World.

The Foundation for a Drug-Free World is a nonprofit public benefit corporation that empowers youth and adults with factual information about drugs so they can make informed decisions and live drug-free. For more information go to: www.drugfreeworld.org
