Kiwanis Club Drug Program Successful
After only seven months,
the Kiwanis International
program of community
education on drugs and drug
abuse called OPHRATION
DRUG ALKRT has proved to
be one of the most successful
undertakings in the
organization's history,
according to word received
here by LAV. Bledsoe,
president of lire Kiwanis Club
of Raeford.
Nearly 3,000 Kiwanis clubs
in the United States and
Canada are participating in the
program. Bledsoe said. Their
activities run the gamut of
volunteer services. Many of
them ltave organized
community action programs
aimed at drug education:
others Irave led such programs
themselves.
They ltave operated or
sponsored programs for school
assemblies, forums, radio and
TV "talk shows" on drug
abuse. The have set up
information centers, "hot line"
services in communities and on
campuses, drug clinics,
publicity campaigns, and
exhibits of municipal, county,
and state functions.
One of their activities has
revolved around distribution of
a booklet prepared tor young
people of junior high and high
school ages entitled "Deciding
About Drugs." The booklets
have been distiibuted through
schools, c h u r c h e s,
vouthgroups, and police
departments. Currently, more
titan 2,000,000 booklets have
boon given in young people.
I he number continues to
i net ease by 100.000 copies per
week.
Operation Drug Alert is
Kiwanis' first experiment with
an organization ? wide "major
emphasis program." The idea
will be continued. Bledsoe said.
