Drug Class on SCN (or click here for an alternate webpage) (Regina)
It’s teaching youth, parents and teachers vital information about substance abuse, and helping abusers quit. Drug Class follows real-life Saskatchewan teens struggling with varying levels of drug and alcohol consumption. The series interweaves their everyday lives with the classes and counseling sessions of Saskatchewan drug expert and teacher Rand Teed. The teens and their families learn how drug use impacts their lives – physically, mentally and spiritually.
It’s a candid, often gritty, show that features teens learning to cope with drug problems through Teed’s straight-forward, non-judgemental methodology based on harm mitigation. There’s no hectoring the youth to just quit: instead Teed is a steadying and sincere teacher who leads his voluntary course in several Regina high schools. Some kids do go straight; others aren’t so lucky.
This season (09/10), SCN is taking steps to reach parents and teens with more information by facilitating an interactive online chat with Rand Teed immediately following the broadcast of each episode in the 13-part series. Using an online web chat, Teed will answer questions raised from the episodes of the series.
