YOUTH AGAINST METH: NOT EVEN ONCE
Meth use among teens is not just a serious issue in the mid-west and western states. With wider availability, it is now spreading across the country. This program visits Montana to see how The Meth Project was able to reduce meth usage by 63%. We also meet two ex-users who give frank and moving accounts of how their lives were nearly destroyed by the drug. Based on the Not Even Once theme, the media ad blitz was created with input from teens, who go on to own the campaign. We follow them as they create monumental artwork that covers public spaces in Paint the State. Then, to ensure the message continues, they generate widespread participation in a March Against Meth that successfully petitions state legislators at the capitol for funding. The teens passion and creativity are an inspiration, and the project has been replicated by seven other states. This program clearly shows the dangers of meth and how use can be prevented.
