Warsaw – Fellowship Missions has coordinated with local community leaders to host the High In Plain Sight: Substance Abuse Prevention Training event on November 7, 2022, at the Performing Arts Center in Warsaw Community High School. Doors open at 6:30pm and the event will begin at 7pm.
This community-focused educational evening will review current drug trends, including identifiers, logos, and clothing to demonstrate possible high-risk behaviors in youth. This presentation will also explain the current drug and alcohol terms in simple language for each attendee to easily apply what they learn in their community, school, and home.
This session will identify what some of the common drug and alcohol products are as well as show attendees behaviors associated with them and how that can have a negative impact on youth, their families, and the community. This event is for adults (18+) and is free to attend for anyone in our community.
The session will be taught by Officer Jermaine Galloway, “The Tall Cop” as part of the Tall Cop Says Stop™ organization. Officer Galloway has nearly 20 years of experience in law enforcement with much of his time being spent combating underage drinking and drug abuse.
He is a highly respected and internationally recognized instructor on trends in drug/alcohol culture and enforcement methods.
His motto is, “You can’t stop what you don’t know” and he has worked with parents, educators, city officials, and others to help better understand and reduce the harm caused by drinking and drug use in communities across the United States.
For more information about the event, please contact Eric Lane or Brook Skeans at Fellowship Missions at 574-268-9555. This event is hosted by Fellowship Missions in partnership with K21 Health Foundation, Warsaw Community Schools, Live Well Kosciusko, Kosciusko County Community Foundation, and KCODE.
