Above The Influence
Our goal is to help you stay above the influence. The more aware you are of the influences around you, the better prepared you will be to stand up to the pressures that keep you down. We're not telling you how to live your life, but are giving you another perspective and the latest facts. You need to make your own smart decisions. The National Youth Anti-Drug Media Campaign (a program of the Office of National Drug Control Policy) sponsors this site. |
