Most kids are doing the right thing, but there are signs to watch for to
know if they are heading in the wrong direction. Correcting risky behaviors
early is the key to successful Prevention!
Own The Upside is a campaign formed by the Coalition Partnership of
Hardee, Highlands, and Polk Counties to help prevent harm and promote health
our youth. We
are proud to partner with Polk County Sheriff’s Foundation to present an exciting
resource to educate parents of teens in our community.
OTUS TRAILER – The “Own the
Upside…Avoid the Downside” trailer is a mobile, interactive exhibit housing
a replica of a teens’ bedroom that parents can walk through to learn how to recognize
clues signaling potential involvement in drugs and risky behaviors visible in
plain sight or easily concealed in ordinary everyday items in the room. This
presentation is for adults only – no children please!
How can you
help?
To support efforts to encourage healthy
behaviors and reduce substance abuse, your organization may invite a
representative from Own The Upside to visit with the “Own the Upside…Avoid the
Downside” trailer and share an informative education presentation with members who
play a pivotal part in educating youth about making healthy choices, the community
standard we all want to promote and grow.
To schedule a presentation for Fall 2021, please contact https://www.owntheupsidepolk.com/about-us
