Too Good for Drugs & Violence After-School Activities

How it works

Children are influenced by all the environments in which they live. To be truly effective, prevention programs must reach children not only in schools, but in after-school and out-of-school settings as well. Too Good for Drugs & Violence After-School Activities reinforces school-based prevention programming by emphasizing the same skills and concepts in a different context. The program includes games, songs and stories tailored to children’s interests and developmental level. Activities are designed for two distinct groups: ages 5-9 and ages 10-13.
