This year, millions of school children around the world will benefit from D.A.R.E. (Drug Abuse Resistance Education). This highly acclaimed program gives children the skills they need to avoid involvement in drugs, gangs, and violence. D.A.R.E. was founded in 1983 in Los Angeles and has proven so successful it is now implemented in over 75 percent of our nation's school districts and in 41 countries around the world.

Some interesting facts:
With the money spent incarcerating one inmate, D.A.R.E. can educate over 3,300 children per year.

In the time it takes to read this sentence, we've spent $1.20 for an inmate to sit in his prison cell.

Drugs in the workplace cost American industry an estimated $250 billion per year.

Every five minutes, an American smokes cocaine. In those same five minutes, D.A.R.E. has educated over 235 students about the dangers of illegal drugs.
