Invitation to interactive session - Safe Schools: Supporting schools address child sexual abuse, holistically
When you know better, you do better - Maya Angelou Protecting children is no longer an option – it is a responsibility vested in each one of us. And schools are at the front line of child protection w ith a large part of the truly "awake" time of a child's waking hours being spent at school. N eedless to state the school and the community of educators are one of the most significant aspects of a child's world and we also know that educators care for their students and their welfare and safety at all times. A school’s integrity and worth is not based on whether cases of sexual violence happen to children on its rolls.

WASHINGTON - Teens increasingly are getting high with legal drugs like painkillers and mood stimulants, and they're turning to cough syrup as well, says a government survey released Thursday.
The annual study by the National Institute on Drug Abuse, conducted by the University of Michigan, showed mixed results in the nation's longtime campaign against teen drug abuse.
It found that while fewer teens overall drank alcohol or used illegal drugs in the last year, a small but growing number were popping prescription painkillers like OxyContin and Vicodin and stimulants like
Ritalin.
As many as one in every 14 high school seniors said they used cold medicine "fairly recently" to get high, the study found.
It was the first year that the government tracked the frequency of teens who reported getting high from over-the-counter medicine for coughs and colds.
