MADD Program Set at Whitman Shops

Oct.27 program targets teen drinking.

Posted by Pam Robinson (Editor), September 15, 2012 at 05:08 pm

Mothers Against Drunk Driving/Long Island will offer a program at Walt Whitman Shops in Huntington on Oct. 27.

The program is designed to educate and bring awareness about underage drinking and drinking and driving. High school representatives from around Long Island will be invited, along with elected officials and other guests. Interactive tools to educate how impairment affects judgment and many other activities will be available.

Teen alcohol use kills about 6,000 people each year — more than all other illegal drugs combined.

The program runs from noon to 4 p.m.

Does the Patch accept articles from district spokespeople? Perhaps that is the answer to this…Read More problem! Short but informative articles can be submitted each week and then Huntington could get the coverage it so desires. Each town's Patch would cover whichever high schools are in it's area. Problem solved!
