This presentation raised our awareness and was highly relevant in addressing the fear that parents with teenage children face. Delivered with incredible authority by someone who has walked through this unique and dangerous culture, the stories and anecdotes were both confronting and powerful. Every parent needs to hear and absorb this message.

National Drug awareness delivers specific and confronting insight into the Australian drug culture and their approach systematically dismantles the flawed perceptions of socially acceptable drug use. They create a pathway to have open conversations with our players on this challenging issue. Singularly the best presentation I have ever seen on illicit drugs.
