2008 Substance Abuse Prevention Project

PRESS CONFERENCE

Thursday, January 31, 2008
9:00 AM - 1:15 PM
Johnson Hall
Miami University Middletown

The 2008 Substance Abuse Prevention Project announces through the Butler County Sheriff, Rick Jones and the Butler County Prosecutor, Robin Piper, the Prom and Graduation Summit Agenda to take place at the above location and date.

Over 200 local students will attend to plan and formulate viable strategies for the safety of the upcoming prom and graduation season. Statistics and past circumstances will be shared with students. Students will have break-out sessions to discuss public service announcements and the various and best means to address the issues surrounding student safety and awareness. Each group of students will be expected to come up with strategies which will be shared to the over-all group; public service announcements will be evaluated and there will be displays on location. At 12:00, the Butler County Sheriff and Prosecutor will conduct a news conference before the student audience reviewing the strategies generated by the students and promoting the purpose, and support for, the Substance Abuse Prevention Project. One of the issues to be addressed is not only how to incorporate student awareness, but also adult awareness.

Graduation risks will be minimized with proper planning and student participation. The media is invited to attend and film any and/or all of the events to occur. The media is encouraged to attend as public awareness is key in promoting strategies promoting prom and graduation safety. This project allows students to have open dialogue and to take responsibility for life and death decisions. For additional information call Tom Kelechi at (513) 868-2100 ext. 221.
