For Teens
After waking up in the hospital, the only things Greg remembered was thinking - 'something feels this good can't be good for you."
Taking something that alters the way you think and or feel can lead you to take risks that you would not ordinarily do.
The consequences of making such choices can be with you for the rest of your life. Pregnance. Diseases. Injuries. Even death. You could cause harm to someone.
Whatever your reason for using alcohol, tobacco, or other drugs, the person at risk is you and everyone you are connected to in your life. Substance abuse shatters families. Marriages often crack under the strain and relationships between family members and friends are broken. It is not worth it.
Choose to be the one who does not experiment. Choose to be the one who starts a SAPNET chapter at your school. Chhose to be the one who participates in the service larning project through SAPNET that prevents drug abuse. Choose to be the one who creates a project that builds the community. Your SAPNET experience may be the basis for you becoming a great entrepreneur.
