Affliates. We have no endorsements nor do we receive revenue or advertising from any of the following
recommendations.
- Our experience has taught us that not all websites are as they appear; many are pro-drug.
- Please be careful when doing drug research for reports or teaching about this subject.
- If you're not sure, don't hesitate to email us and ask.
- Coming Soon: Rehab links
 | The TAC The Transport Accident Commission from Victoria, Australia put out a series of very intense, | |
| serious ads. This link goes to a video made by them that is posted for adults to watch first and determine if it should be viewed by their children or class. Click here. |
| This amazing website came to us from Ms Adrianne's Youth Group: Online RN Programs: Resources for Families | |
| Facing a Loved One's Addiction - http://www.onlinernprograms.com/resources/resources-for-families-facing-a-loved- ones-addiction/ |
| Permanent Prescription Drug Collection Boxes Launched by the American Medicine Chest Challenge |
| This website is an example of a community making a difference: Safe Launch Santa Barbara |
|
| This very useful guide came to us from Sam East in Washington, she thought it would be a helpful guide to understanding learning | |
| difficulties. We agree, each link leads to more in-depth information about each difficulty that most people just lump into the term "Dyslexia." It is actually part of another useful website for disabled travelers. Check it out, you'll be glad you did - thanks, Sam!
