Last week, 100 DC high school
students and several SEED students (Darcia
Brown, Taylor Butler, Cierra Graham, Imani Graham, Heaven Griffin, Bryon Ford, Keirra Simmons and Keyana
White) had an opportunity to interact with top U.S. scientists and guest speakers at
the House of Sweden!
All of the students were guests of
Mentor
Foundation USA and the goal of the event was to shatter the myths that students had about
drugs and for them to pledge to stay
drug free!
The guest speakers included Dr.
Nora Volkow, Director at the National
Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) and R&B recording artist Mario (Barrett) of The Mario Do Right Foundation.
In addition to the guest speakers, the George Washington University Center for Alcohol/Peer Drug Educators presented workshops for students in a game show format and the clothing retailer H&M announced the winner of the drug free T-shirt slogan contest. While no one from SEED won the slogan contest, all of the students enjoyed themselves and modeled exemplary behavior throughout the day.

Good post but I was wondering if you could write a litte more on this subject? I’d be very thankful if you could elaborate a little bit further. Appreciate it!
