NFP's First Blog Post!


This is NFP’s first blog, but we have been spreading the drug prevention message for over 27 years. Wow, that’s a long time! When we started we thought the world would understand the dangers of drug use and chose to be drug free… it seemed like common sense. Do we have a shortage of common sense? Or maybe, we still don’t have the correct information and/or don’t like to make tough choices.

Most people don’t use illegal drugs and guess what??? Most people don’t drink alcohol, but you would never believe it to listen to the media. It is important to know that most people don't drink or use illegal drugs because WHEN WE THINK MOST PEOPLE DO, IT NORMALIZES THE BEHAVIOR AND PEOPLE (ESPECIALLY TEENS) ARE MORE LIKELY TO TRY USING ALCOHOL AND DRUGS.

Well, let’s keep it short…our mission is to help people (especially kids) reach their full potential and that is not possible if you fry your brain.

So our blog will try to answer your questions and give you the facts. Remember EMOTIONS ARE A FACT OF EACH PERSON'S LIFE - AND THEY FREQUENTLY DRIVE OUR BEHAVIORS. Hope you are feeling well and happy.
