Reality Tour
Since 2012 the AGF has worked in collaboration with the City of Atascadero police, fire, parks and recreation, and the Chapel of the Roses to present Reality Tour to our youth 12-years-old and above. The Reality Tour is an evidence-based drug prevention program developed by Candle, Inc. Through this program we educate parents/ caregivers and our youth on the consequences of drug use. This program is not designed to be a scare tactic, but the beginning of a family conversation. Participants take a “tour” through the life of an addict from that first step of drug use to their final moments of death. They see a live interview with a current community member who is struggling with addiction and is willing to honestly share their experience. There is a session on the importance of family communication and accountability, and the evening ends with a small group question and answer session over pizza. |
