TEEN DRINKING PREVENTION MEETING THIS WEEK

From Maplewood Health Director Robert Roe

On Thursday evening at the Baker Street Maplewood Library a program, 7:00pm to 9:00pm, ( sponsored by the Maplewood and South Orange and ADAPT drug abuse prevention alliances), on preventing and handling teenage alcohol abuse will be held. 

The primary speaker is Ms. Alison Steiner, Social Worker at SOMA Schools. There will be time for discussion with CHS Guidance Counselors and Maplewood Police. While alcohol abuse is in the title of the program, other drug abuse problems will also be discussed. The program is for parents and teenagers.
Alcohol and drug abuse prevention is a topic that almost all parents must be able to discuss with their children. This program will help you with this difficult parenting issue. Also, information on summer jobs, volunteer opportunities and camps will be available. Light refreshments will be served. For further info, contact the Maplewood Health Dept. 973-762-8120 x4400.
