New Drug Program At Rebound Sarnia Lambton

Rebound Sarnia Lambton is offering a new program aimed at helping kids say no to drugs.

The Choices Jr. program promotes skills in self control, communication and emotional awareness.

Substance Abuse Councillor Brooke Gerber says its important to educate youth not only of the dangers of drugs, but to discuss ways they can say no when faced with peer pressure.

Gerber says although some youth are reluctant to start, the non pressure one on on setting is very beneficial.
