Everyone KNOWS
Drug use destroys your life and life of your familyDrug use is illegalDrug use can killDrug use leads to addictionDrug use jeopardizes your future opportunities
But are FACTS enough?Many times Peer Pressure overrides common sense!Some kids just need a Reason to resist the temptation to use drugs
Why use drug testing kitParents have a responsibility to guide and protect their children!
Youth are 50 percent less likely to use RX drugs when parents talk to their children about drugs.
Drug testing shows your children you are taking a firm stand against drug use
Voluntary testing is a logical and simple way to hold your children accountable to family rules concerning drug use
It helps build trust and lets them know you care by creating an opportunity for open discussion
Why use drug testing kitThe goal of a Voluntary Drug Testing Program is help your child make positive life choices concerning alcohol and other drugs.
Voluntary drug testing is a Reason for your children to say No to peer pressure
They can tell their friends: I cant use drugs, my parents drug test me.
ConcernsNo records are kept on who picks up a kit
Kits are administered within the privacy of your family unit
There is no way to track drug test kits or individual results
Kits contain a pre-stamped envelope to report test results, but no personal data is collected
Using drug SalivaScan Test SalivaScanTM test is non-invasiveTesting takes less than 20 minutes
To begin:Make sure nothing (food, drink, gum, tobacco, etc.) is placed in mouth 10 minutes prior to testing

CDC 2014: Overdose Deaths
Like many states Indiana is in crisis. CDC 2014 report: Overall, Indiana is ranked 14th in the nation for overdose deaths as reported by CDC. Indiana trends, give more reason for concern. CDC 2014 data shows IN is one of the 14 US states with significant overdose death rate increases over 2013. 33

CDC: Heroin usemore than doubledamong young adults ages 1825 in the past decade. Following CDC recommendations Address the strongest risk factor for heroin addiction: addiction to prescription opioid painkillers. ODL created a prevention program to reduce prescription opioid pain medicine abuse and heroin use through education - targeted to students grades 8-12 and their families.

Why prevention?We know that evidence-based prevention efforts are the most effective way to reduce drug use and to support the roughly 90 percent of American youth who do not use illicit drugs. This Administration will continue to expand community-based efforts to prevent drug use, pursue smart on crime approaches to drug enforcement, increase access to treatment, work to reduce overdose deaths, and support the millions of Americans in recovery.
-- Michael Botticelli, Director of National Drug Control Policy.
Why prevention?In total, alcohol, tobacco and illicit drug use exacts more than $700 billion annually in costs related to crime, lost work productivity and health care. For every $1 invested into prevention and early treatment programs, up to $10 can be saved in costs related to substance use disorders.

Most important messagePrescription Pain Pills = Heroin, both are OpioidsHeroin and prescription pills are rarely the starting point - First is marijuana, alcohol and other drugs When you use opioids and heroin, you lose your ability to chooseYou can become addicted and you can overdose with just 1 use, with the 2nd, the 3rd , etc.
FeedbackSouth Vermillion High School Principal Don Harman believes the work of Overdose Lifeline is vital. I would encourage every high school principal to contact them and have them speak to your student body. To me, that right there every high school and I hate to say this, some middle schools that message needs to get out there.""I appreciate Overdose Lifeline, Inc. for coming out to our high school to present this lesson on heroin prevention. Heroin use has become an epidemic in our state and it's vital that our young people become aware of what could potentially happen to them if they experiment with heroin or opioids." -- Jeff Wright, Indiana High School, Health TeacherIndiana Students Against Destructive Decisions (SADD) sees the unique value in this educational program, as Overdose Lifeline works with law enforcement to deliver a message that must be shared with young people in the Indianapolis area. Programs like this have great potential to create positive change in our communities.-- Jamie Vickery, State Coordinator Indiana SADDThe best kind of drug case is the case that dont have because somebody makes the choice to not use. And if people, young people especially, that may not have had a lot of information about narcotics - specifically heroin and addiction - if they have more information, then it will increase the possibility that theyre going to make good decisions, not bad decisions. -- Brent Eaton, Hancock County Prosecutor

Students what did you learnDont do any kind of drugs because you will probably end up somewhere where you never thought you would be.I learned that drugs are never the right path to go down and that you should always stay away from them. Always keep good positive people in your life to make you a better person so you don't go down the wrong path. I learned that people normally do other drugs before doing heroin or prescription pain medicine. It is sort of like a ladder.That practically any drug out there could really screw up your plans for life. If I want to do big things, I can't let something stupid like a little pill effect my grades, my goals, and my friendships/relationships. Prescription drugs and heroin are the same type of drug and are equally dangerous. Both are opioids, and both have the potential to end your life.I learned that no matter how confidant you are that you won't get addicted to a drug after taking one dose, you can easily come addicted and its not within your control. Even trying drugs that aren't as powerful, will lead to more dangerous drugs that can severely effect your life.I learned that drugs can really mess up someone's life. More than anyone thinks in the first place, but listening to someone describe how hard it was to get through hit me in ways that are indescribable.
