Virginia Beach Sheriff's D.A.R.E. Program This year millions of school children around the world will benefit from D.A.R.E. (Drug Abuse Resistance Education), the highly acclaimed program that gives kids the skills they need to avoid involvement in drugs, gangs and violence. D.A.R.E. was founded in 1983 in Los Angeles and has proven so successful that it is now being implemented in 75 percent of our nation's school districts and in more than 43 countries around the world. The program is a police officer-led series of classroom lessons that teaches children from kindergarten through 12th grade how to resist peer pressure and live productive drug and violence-free lives. Contemporary America is rampant with challenges that could keep children from a positive life path. D.A.R.E.'s mission is to equip kids with the tools that will enable them to avoid negative influences and instead allow them to focus on their strengths and potential. Additionally, it establishes positive relationships between students and law enforcement, teachers, parents, and other community leaders. D.A.R.E. gives youngsters the opportunity to grow up healthy, safe, secure and equipped with the skills needed to succeed in life.
