OPERATION PREVENTION
Classroom Resources for HIgh School, MIddle School, Elementary School
Operation Prevention is an initiative brought to you by the DEA and Discovery Education to educate middle and high school students about the true impacts of prescription opioid misuse and heroin use.
Operation Prevention's mission is to educate students about the true impacts of opioids and kick-start lifesaving conversations in the home and classroom.
Operation Prevention's classroom resources provide educators with engaging tools that are aligned to national health and science standards and integrate seamlessly into classroom instruction.
Through a series of hands-on investigations, these resources introduce students to the science behind opioids and their impact on the brain and body, and a discussion guide offers parents support for continuing the conversation at home.
