Our PARENT NETWORK component of MPIP has developed a parent resource booklet that provides information about AODA resources and suggestions for families on AODA prevention. This booklet idea was inspired by the Adrian, MI School District. We are grateful for their input.

Our Parent Network has come together to provide information and support primarily to parents of high school students. Some of the activities that have been implemented in the past year are included in our "activities" page.

The booklet is divided into the following categories:

1. From parent to parent
2. Facts & statistics about kids, alcohol and other drugs
3. Alcohol and kids - It's the law
4. Minors and the Law
5. Your notes
6. Your example as a parent
7. Helping my child say "no"
8. Did you know?
9. Teenage party guidelines
10. The big three
11. Common signs of drug abuse
12. Could my child be in trouble?
13. Communication & self esteem
14. Resources - We can make a difference!
