About One Way 2 Play - Drug Free

In our society, 1 out of 2 college students are binge drinkers (National Substance Abuse Center, 3/2007).  It is imperative that High School and College students are informed of wise choices, and foolish paths.  Now endorsed by the NCAA and congressional leaders, this program has been the conduit through which many coaches have experienced powerful changes in the lives of their players. FCA is a recognized non-profit organization and is calling out for your involvement in the Golf Classic to further the powerful work taking place in the Greater Washington D.C. Metropolitan Area.

An Overview...

One Way 2 Play - Drug Free! is FCA's program to confront the problem of drug use. It goes far beyond "Just Say No!" campaigns because it helps create a powerful, healthy atmosphere and provides clear information and guidance for young people. We address the entire scope of the teens' lives, not just one behavior. This comprehensive approach takes longer to communicate and more care to implement, but the quality of relationships which are built will be the basis for healthy communication for any topic your group discusses.

One Way 2 Play - Drug Free! consists of three key ingredients: Faith, Commitment, and Accountability. A game plan for success! We have drawn on the expertise of Christians in this field, and together we have created a program which God can use you to touch young lives. One Way 2 Play - Drug-Free!...innovative, relevant, and effective.

The Features of this Program include school assemblies and group interaction:

In implementing the One Way 2 Play - Drug-Free! program with a group we focus on the consequences of drug use, the reasons students use and abuse drugs, and how God can provide purpose, wisdom, and strength to live drug and alcohol-free. In addition, we ask how each person can make a commitment to be drug-free and encourage others to do the same.

The philosophy and the message of One Way 2 Play - Drug-Free! are clearly defined including: Details such as why students use drugs, responsibilities of the coach, parent, leader, team group, and student in telling if students are using, plus setting up a "positive peer-pressure" structure to aid in implementing the program.

FCA's book, One Way 2 Play!, contains athletes' testimonies and more about the problem and the solution. Our One Way 2 Play commitment sheet provides an opportunity at the end of the assembly for young people to commit themselves to live and play drug-free.

**A team of professionals is willing and able to help you through any counseling needs that may arise from the discussions.
