CURRICULA TAUGHT IN THE UNITED STATES BY POLICE OFFICERS.
If you are on this page, you may have already met one of our L.E.A.D. Program Awareness Representatives in your community. You may see our Program Awareness Representatives working at tables in front of retail shops, restaurants, and grocery stores. These Program Awareness Representatives work from independent offices that partner with L.E.A.D. to engage in nationwide community outreach. They are available to help educate the community about L.E.A.D., advocate for our cause, and disseminate L.E.A.D. information, including our website and how to contact us.
Because of our Program Awareness Representatives, we see, on average, 500 people per week per event. That adds up to thousands of people per week and millions per year who receive information about L.E.A.D. due to our Program Awareness Representatives. This helps spread the L.E.A.D. message further than ever, with the ultimate goal to get L.E.A.D. into more communities.
Our children have the right to a life free of substance abuse, despair, and violence. In the United States, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that drug overdose deaths have reached 107,521 during 2021, up 68% from 63,938 deaths five years prior. Tens of thousands of others have overdosed or are addicted and are experiencing permanent disabilities and shattered lives. Drug abuse prevention has never been more needed.
Our Children deserve a proven, effective education/ prevention curriculum with the critical information and skills they need to live healthy lives free of substance abuse and violence.
Our L.E.A.D. instructors provide the most effective, tested, and proven effective, evidence-based, K-12 anti-drug/anti-violence curriculum delivered by law enforcement. L.E.A.D. directly addresses opioids in its curriculum, and we are currently have more than 6,000 instructors in the United States. Our L.E.A.D. officers are the last line of defense in our schools.
The money raised goes 100% to L.E.A.D and to provide materials, training, and funds to support our Program Awareness Representatives and fundraising efforts.
Your support is appreciated and will assist L.E.A.D. and local communities like yours in three ways:
- Your donation will assist and subsidize L.E.A.D. agencies with obtaining student workbooks.
- Your donation will subsidize training costs for new L.E.A.D. trainings, update trainings, and training conferences.
- Your donation will provide program engagement toys and other items to L.E.A.D. agencies and communities.
If you do not have L.E.A.D. in your community, please call our office at (609) 259-2500. We would be eager to contact your local police department to provide them with further information.
