"Are You Being Played?"

This presentation is designed for youth from Grade 7 to 10 so that they may learn more about the effects of alcohol advertising on youth. Adaptations are made depending on the target age group. The workshop will be conducted in a casual atmosphere, encouraging audience involvement, discussion, and feedback throughout. Small and large group activities will be utilized to discuss the information presented and to find reasonable solutions to the problems associated with youth and drinking. If you are interested in having a presenter come to your school, please contact the ARAPO Coordinator to discuss the details.
