ABOUT THIS PROGRAM
  • FAN believes that education is crucial to prevention, which in turn is crucial to reducing the number of people affected by addiction and dispelling the stigma that is associated with the disease. We have presented to hundreds of schools, universities, hospitals, and institutions across the state and nationwide. We are making a difference by educating students, school personnel, parents, law enforcement, judges, doctors, and other healthcare professionals.

  • All educational sessions can be offered in person or virtually at no cost. There is no minimum time requirement for a presentation, but we do recommend one hour if multiple topics are requested.
