The first event, regarding alcohol prevention, is scheduled for tomorrow, Saturday 15 June, in L’Aquila, during the White Night. On this occasion, the operators, with road unit campers, will set up experiential courses that involve the use of glasses simulating the state of alcoholic inebriation or drug intoxication; the intent is to intercept young people and make them aware of the risks they run under the influence of substances. The second initiative will be held on June 22nd in Pescina, with a conference focused on gambling, as part of a project implemented by the Municipality and carried out in the last school year in the ‘Fontamara’ comprehensive school. The project included informative-educational meetings with teachers, families and students who set up creative workshops and created artistic works collected in an exhibition. Finally, on June 26th, in the L’Aquila area, in conjunction with the world day for the fight against drugs, the Serd operators will be engaged on the theme of self-help, in an event that will welcome various associations and groups in the area, within a network perspective, to the synergistic care of individuals and families dealing with the discomfort of pathological addictions.
