Drug Awareness Programs

Picture
The Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks welcomes you to the resource center for the Elks National Drug Awareness Program - the largest volunteer drug awareness program in the United States. We are very proud of our dedicated army of volunteers who freely give their time and talents to this most noble cause. The Elks are committed to eliminating the use and abuse of illegal drugs by all members of society and believe that in order to ensure a bright future for our country, it is essential that our children be raised in a drug-free environment.

Drug Awareness Poster Contest
Each year the Elks sponsor a Drug Awareness Poster Contest where students grades 3 through 5 can submit their ideas for posters that can be distributed to schools and communities educating kids about the use and abuse of drugs and how to build a drug free community.

The theme for 2013-2014 is: "Down with drugs. Up with awareness!" Poster must be no larger than 11x24 inches. Judging will be based on
  • Closeness to the theme
  • Neatness
  • Originality
  • Correct grammatical structure
Contact your local lodge to find out the due date for submissions and any other questions you may have. Additional information can be found on the national Elks web site at http://www.elks.org/dap/poster.cfm.
