This campaign educates those 21 and older who can legally purchase alcohol of the dangersand consequences of providing alcohol to minors. Youth encouraged parents, and adults to sign the Pledge to not provide alcohol, tobacco or other drugs to teens on their property.
Nemaha County SADDStudents Against Destructive Decisions
One of our many successes…
Establishing 4 new SADD Chapters in Nemaha County. We now have 5 active SADD Chapters. One SADD officer from each organization is also a member of our county-side Student Leadership Council Board. This board meets one to two times per year to schedule our youth activities.
Toss Out Bad Choices
We got our youth involved and decorated a float for the Sabetha Rodeo Parade.We passed out information the Not In Our House Campaign. This was our big “Kick Off”
event.
Our SADD Chaptersset up booths at home basketball, wrestling activities and worked very hard at getting adults to Pledge to be a safe house.
The SADD Chapters competed with the other local SADD chapterstrying to see which chaptercould get the most pledges.
Over 250 Pledges
