Show Notes

Drug Testing at School? Is that crazy? Fun? Or smart drug prevention. Angie Ferguson talks about how drug testing is used as a reward and positive experience with Drug Free Clubs of America.

Angie Ferguson has made it her mission to protect the futures of teens and young adults from drug and alcohol devastation. As the Executive Director of Drug Free Clubs of America since 2012, she has built collaborations with health care, education, military, business, and community leaders in over 100 communities to combat substance-based threats to adolescents.  Under her leadership, Angie and her team have strengthened and expanded their proven prevention program.

DFCA applies a practical strategy to delivering tangible tools, reinforcements, education, and leadership opportunities to students, schools, parents, and community members.  Its methods have been independently validated by formally trained social psychologists and its positive outcomes have been identified by PhD level researchers.

Angie and DFCA have been recognized for contributions to the drug prevention industry through the FBI Director's Community Leadership Award, the United States Attorney Community Outreach Award, as a Rotarian Jefferson Award Finalist, and featured in a book titled, Not Far From Me, which won the 2019 Schwartz Prize for outstanding work.
