“DFYIT” (Drug Free Youth in Town) is a free, school-based, voluntary, anti-drug Club for high school teens. In DFYIT, teens thrive, drug free, in a Club run by kids, for kids. The goal is to provide a positive peer network that supports healthy choices and a drug-free lifestyle. School personnel and city staff work with teen leaders (Club officers) on local high school campuses to develop, coordinate, and supervise on-campus events, community service projects and educational workshops that promote a drug free lifestyle.  On campus Club meetings are held regularly to discuss drug-related issues and to highlight local supportive services. Our first meeting is next Monday September 24th in the Auxiliary gym.  Bring yourself and maybe even a friend to get involved and have fun.
