Red Ribbon Week
This week is Red Ribbon Week. Started as a tribute to a Drug Enforcement Officer who was killed by drug traffickers in Mexico, the week-long event promotes healthy living, and encourages adults and young people alike to live drug-free lives.
"The Red Ribbon Campaign is now the oldest and largest drug prevention program in the nation, reaching millions of young people during Red Ribbon Week."The events coordinating organization, National Family Partnership, was begun in 1980 by parents nationwide who were concerned about rising levels of drug use among teens.
