Remember graduating from D.A.R.E. with your T-shirt and certificate? Turns out the program became one of the most studied school prevention programs in America… and the research consistently found it had little impact on preventing drug use. That’s why many schools shifted toward evidence-based prevention programs that focus on life skills and interactive education instead of fear-based messaging. Sometimes the best lesson is admitting when something didn’t work and doing better. 📚 #DARE #Education #millennial #millennials #DidYouKnow
