Nightmare On Drug Street DVD

Grades: 8 - 12

This powerful DVD contrasts two drug use realities: the road to death versus the road to recovery. A harrowing nightmare sequence of a young girl’s tragic street journey to her death is intercut with testimonials from kids who have triumphed over their drug problems. Some teens use drugs in order to cope with problems, to add excitement to their lives, or to feel connected to their peers. This program encourages students to take control of their lives and understand that use, abuse, and addiction are not the ways to meet life head on. Too often, substance abusers only remember the good side of the high. This DVD shows the ugly side.
