MAMA Presentations

MAMA's "Model Program" is cited in both the "The Drug Policy Letter", summer 1996, and "Kids, Drugs, and Drug Education: A Harm Reduction Approach" a report written by Marsha Rosenbaum, Ph.D., for the National Council on Crime and Delinquency.

"MAMA's program is not radical. It includes real information about legal and illegal drugs. MAMA's value lies in its comprehensive, non-judgmental, yet cautionary perspective on drug education." reports Dr. Rosenbaum.

MAMA has available several computer generated presentations and has started giving trainings. Our goal is to have people all over the United States prepared and provided with a variety of presentations, targeted to specific audiences. More information available in our Member Area.
