Abstract

Provides an account of some of the author’s observations while on a Winston Churchill Travelling Fellowship to the USA to study drugs education. Shows some of the ways drugs education is made memorable in US schools, and how positive alternatives to drink, tobacco and drugs are promoted in California. Concludes that schools and other agencies within an education authority could together organize a smaller scale version of the Friday Night Live clubs that run in California.
