“You’re my hero and you don’t even know it. Some friends invited me to a Rave this weekend & I might have gone if it weren’t for you.”-- Bethany
“One night out can change my life, or end it. I remember not being able to breath through that straw and I don’t want to live that way." --Michelle
"Thank you for my life." --Dustin
Teachers use “The Real Inside Story” (TRIS) as an enhancement to science, biology, health, physical education, and substance abuse prevention curricula. Choice & Consequence’s (CC) registered nurses use human organs, some healthy and others damaged by substance abuse, interactive activities, humor, storytelling, scientific facts and an unforgettable hands on component, designed to help youth contemplate their vulnerability around alcohol, tobacco, and other drug abuse, often a problem with young people!
Students put on gloves at the end of the 60-90 minute TRIS program and get to feel the difference between the organs, such as comparing a smoker, a marijuana user, and a healthy lung lobe, etc. It is CC’s policy that follow-up be provided for students after TRIS. To make this easy for teachers and fun for students, a Power Point presentation can be downloaded by clicking the Teacher Link after October 15, 2009.
