TELL THE TRUTH ABOUT THE DARE PROGRAM

To the Editor:

As long as you are going to be writing articles on DARE, why don't you tell
the truth about it.

Like for instance, the fact that there isn't a single shred of credible
research to show that it works to keep kids off drugs.

Anyone who is actually interested in whether DARE works can find the major
research on the subject at:  http://www.druglibrary.org/schaffer under the
section titled "Kids and Drugs".
