This Workshop will highlight important science-based prevention principles and the TEKS connected with those as a backdrop and focus to significantly raise the overall Marijuana, Alcohol and other Drug IQ throughout the school environment. The information will be geared toward lay persons but instructive for advanced practitioners as well. Participants will become well versed in a science-based credible approach to talking to kids and peers in a credible fashion, thus becoming a more valuable prevention asset in our ‘village’.
