Choose Not to Use

Choose Not to Use is a unique teen substance abuse program videotaped with a live cast of teen performers as well as a real police officer, who share their real and thought provoking stories with viewers. Through songs, raps, poetry and one-on-one interviews we learn how some of these performers got trapped into a life of using and abusing drugs, but managed through discipline, perseverance and intelligence to break out of their self-imposed destructiveness to create new lives of hope, vibrancy and enhanced self-esteem. The performers deliver a strong “no use” message on tobacco, alcohol, marijuana and other drugs, underscoring the message that the power to say no comes from within each of us.
