THE SPOT

Whether they realize it or not, teens are constantly in an environment that pushes them to use alcohol and other drugs at young ages. From cartoon characters selling alcohol in TV commercials to celebrities endorsing the legalization of marijuana, teens are bombarded with messages that scream, "Substance use is OK." And, in today's culture, there are more places than ever for those messages to pop up.

MADD's newest multimedia show, The Spot, encourages teens to take a hard look at the people they hang out with and the messages they are getting. Whether they spend time at a bowling alley, a friend's house, Starbucks, online or text messaging, The Spot shows teens that it is up to each of us to make sure our "spot" is safe and free of harmful elements.

The Spot is now available in a Classroom Pack Edition complete with DVD, activity guide, hand outs and a facilitator's guide to help keep the class on track.
