A Question of Influence

A Teacher's Drug Education Resource for Health / Personal Development and Relationships Grades 7-9

A Question of Influence is an alcohol and other drug education curriculum supplement developed jointly by the Department of Education and the Department of Health Promotion and Protection. This resource targets students in grades 7 to 9 and has been built on current school-based alcohol and other drug education best practice. The supplement has been distributed to all junior high schools in Nova Scotia with a french version coming in the fall of 2008.

School drug education is an important element in the overall response to substance abuse issues, and we are confident that this supplement will be a powerful tool in addressing youth substance use in Nova Scotia.
