Red Ribbon Week is a national effort to raise awareness among students and families about the dangers of substance abuse. RISD Counseling and Prevention Services has developed information and activities in support of Red Ribbon Week, which occurs this year from Oct. 26-30.
This year, the national theme is “Make A Difference. Be A Hero. Stay Drug Free.™”. The theme emphasizes that choosing to live drug-free is an act of leadership and courage, and that everyday decisions can positively influence peers, families, and communities.
Check with your campus for details on how your school is celebrating.
