About National Prevention Week
Children , United States
Ends: May 11, 2024
DESCRIPTION:
National Prevention Week was first organized in 2011 to allow schools to participate in a drug prevention-themed event before the school year ends, raising awareness in students of all ages.
The percentages of marijuana, cigarette, and alcohol experimentation among youth increase between spring (April and May) and summer (June and July,) and the timing of National Prevention Week helps to educate young people and their families at this crucial time of year.
During National Prevention Week, community organizations hosted health fairs, block parties, educational assemblies, town hall meetings, memorial walks, social media campaigns, and outdoor events.
