Fostering Connections in our Community
Too Good For Drugs
Skills development is at the core of Too Good for Drugs, a universal K-12 prevention education program designed to mitigate the risk factors and enhance protective factors related to alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs (ATOD) use. The lessons introduce and develop skills for making healthy choices, building positive friendships, developing self-efficacy, communicating effectively, and resisting peer pressure and influence.
Too Good for Drugs teaches five essential character development skills to build self-efficacy, promote healthy development, and academic success:
-
Setting Reachable Goals
-
Making Responsible Decisions
-
Bonding with Pro-Social Others
-
Identifying and Managing Emotions
-
Communicating Effectively
There are several ways that you could help out and contribute such as getting involved in one of our various initiatives, donating for our season of hope program, coming to our stakeholder meetings, or getting involved in our yearly health Expo!
We currently hold monthly board meetings on the second Wednesday of each month and DFC coalition meetings on the third Friday of each month. We encourage community members and organizations to attend to help build connections with others who might be doing similar or complimentary work.
SFCCP is intent on bringing hope to children and families in our communities through advocacy, awareness events, and by helping individuals locate appropriate resources. We work with our local state agencies, schools, and community organizations to best meet the needs of children and families.
