"Well, as you predicted I have been receiving a lot of parent feedback about the Project 7th Grade presentation, all overwhelmingly positive! I have received several calls and emails from parents who missed it but heard about it from another parent wanting to know when they can see the presentation.
I also had a call from a Dad who talked about his ex-wife seeing the kit and having a negative reaction, then after his synopsis of the presentation; she did a 180 and was excited about presenting it to their kids together.
The day after the presentation I had a message on my phone from a Dad who said when his 7th grade daughter saw the kit she said “Oh, cool! When do I get to do that?” Needless to say he was glad to hear that response from her!
I just wanted to thank you again for such a wonderful and helpful presentation. Clearly it has made an impression on the parents at my school. I look forward to scheduling you to come and present at the start of the next school year."

“It gives kids a way to deal with the peer pressure…It gives them an out by saying, ‘I can’t do that (take drugs, smoke pot, etc.) because my parents might drug test me.’ And of course we would like it to open lines of communication between the parents and their children at an appropriate age.”

“You need to educate yourselves and be proactive. Quite often, the kids know more than we do…If parents in this community connect with each other, we narrow the risk for this [drug abuse]…parents are the key to fighting the problem.”
