Drug abuse is harmful at any age, but spreading awareness about drug use is crucial for controlling overall drug use and abuse. Teachers, mentors, coaches, older siblings, and a wide variety of other people can and do have a critical impact on children’s behavior. They help to guide the development of young people, not only through their actions as role models but also through the recommendations, instruction, and encouragement they provide.

Youth drug use rates are more or less consistently high across all gender, racial and ethnic, income, and geographic boundaries. It is critically important that primary prevention efforts address all young people as well as the adults who influence them. In order to spread awareness about substance abuse, the BBIT Public School organized their “Anti Addiction Campaign”.

BBIT Public School had arranged for an interactive session with Mr. K.K Gupta, Vice Chairman, BBIT Public School, Dr. Munmun Nath, Principal, BBIT Public School, and Tollywood actor and Activist Bobby Chakraborty along with other salient members of the school. The winners of the AAC (organized by Actor and Activist Mr. Bobby Chakraborty) 347 Soujany, Nirmalya, and Rupam along with winners of AAC 348 Sneha, Naznin, and Ritama were felicitated today along with the winners of AAC 362 Aqsha, Jenies, and Neha.

The main objective of this “Anti Addiction Campaign” was to ensure that it creates awareness among children to help prevent drug use before it starts.

With the help of this campaign, one can motivate and assist young adults to encourage positive youth development and discourage drug use.
