Workshop Helps Students Make Tough Decisions
CHOICES - Here Ray Lozano works with a teen on stage to teach 127 youths about the effects of alcohol. Lozano was the keynote speaker at the Northeastern Prevention Resource Center Youth Conference last week in Watertown. Seventh- through 12th-graders attended the event which included seven workshops focusing on stress management, healthy relationships, the myths of marijuana, personality, alcohol prevention, safe driving and Students Against Destructive Decisions. Students came from Watertown, Tiospa Zina, Enemy Swim Day, Sisseton, Castlewood, Redfield and Tea. The Watertown Community Foundation granted $5,800 to support the event.
