Police train youth in drug prevention
An estimated 975 sixth-grade students from the Evelio Dolores Carrizo school in Llano Bonito, Chitré, received certificates after being trained by the National Police on drug prevention.
These trainings, which included 10 lessons, are part of an educational program to prevent the use and abuse of drugs and violence (drug abuse resistance education, or D.A.R.E., according to its initials in English). The lessons were taught by instructors from the Child and Adolescents section of the national police department of Herrera.
Commissioner Flavio Vergara, head of the administrative division of the Herrera police, announced that this program has been running for the past six years, and is currently being offered to 8 schools across the province of Herrera.
