10/2/15 Meeting with Cassie and Callie

Cassie, Callie and I met to discuss a date for our presentation. We met at Main Street Bagels to discuss when we want to get the presentation done. We decided we wanted to get the meeting done before Christmas Break. We also discussed the guest speakers we had in mind for the presentation. Hannah Carver gave us a contact from the Juvenal Center who had experience with students who dealt with drug abuse. We also got a contact from Kierra Hall, she gave us the contact of a counselor who deals with students experiencing drug abuse. We decided we would put on the presentation in the auditorium and have both the counselor and the officer talk to the parents and students. The counselor could give information to the parents and the officer could provide information for the students. 

I still firmly believe that our presentation will be successful. Recently I read an article about the drug abuse in Europe, after visiting I was curious about the blue lights in train station. In Switzerland they have a big heroin problem so to prevent people from shooting up they created blue lights to that they can not see their veins. I don't think we have a huge heroin problem in the United States but I do think we have a problem with marijuana use in teenagers. Hopefully our presentation will be able to convey the importance of living a drug free life to the parents and the students.
