Workshop for Kids

"As a high school senior I already knew a lot
about drugs, but Mr. Becker raised my level of knowledge and I now understand the
importance of not using drugs. "Just say no" does not work for me. This approach
does! Thank you Mr. Becker, I'll share this information with my
friends."
