| Sesssion 12 Decision-making and Commitment |
Purpose
The goal of Session 12 is to motivate youth to think through the pros
and cons of drug use and make a commitment regarding whether or not
they want to avoid drug abuse.
Description
The primary activity begins with a discussion of steps in the decision
making process. The students practice using the process by considering
a hypothetical scenario involving alcohol use, completing a decision
making worksheet, and discussing their choice. They complete a "Personal
Commitment" worksheet in which they make a commitment regarding
drug use (e.g., to think about the dangers of drug use, reduce or
quit drug use, or continue to be drug free). They are asked to share
their commitments with the class. The activity concludes with an optional
video that shows testimonials from young people who made a commitment
to stop using drugs.
