The department of Science and Humanities organized this wonderful programme to the students in order to raise awareness and offer education about substance abuse. Drugs change the brain—and this can lead to addiction and other serious problems. So, preventing early use of drugs or alcohol may go a long way in reducing these risks.This important aspect of substance abuse education can throw light on drug abuse awareness in students in particular and it can drastically reduce the chances of using drugs at all. Additionally, helping students to better understand the full impact of drug use can lower their risk of addiction as well as give them information to share with friends and family. Mr. Franco talked about the impact of drug abuse and Mr. William shared his life experience with the students. And Ms. Vimala talked about the causes and effects of alcohol and drugs. This awesome programme in deed incredibly influenced the students not to use drugs and alcohol in their lives.
