PARENTING TIPS:
With summer right around the corner, it can sometimes lead to unsafe and risky situations related to underage alcohol use. Please take a moment and read the "10 Tips For Parents" which offers facts and suggestions on how to deter such situations. Wishing everyone a safe and healthy summer. Please contact Ann Bayer, PCSD Prevention Coordinator with any questions or concerns. Prescription Drug Safety: Recent trends in data show that there has been an increase in use of prescription drugs by our teens, drugs that were not intended for them. We suggest that you take advantage of a prescription drop off program presented by the drug prevention coalition in Fairport. Disposing of prescription drugs by drop off is far safer than throwing them down the drain which contaminates the water supply. For more information see the pittsfordalliance.org website. If your teen is thinking about giving a party view the details here at http://www.pittsfordptsa.net/files/graduation%20season%20for%20parents.pdf UNDERAGE DRINKING TIPLINE
"You know you care..........make the call"
A 24-hour anonymous, confidential Underage Drinking Tipline has recently been created for people living in Genesee, Monroe, Orleans, and Wyoming counties. Call the tipline at 1-800-851-1932 or (585) 343-1932 to report underage drinking parties or other activities that are harmful to the health, safety, and/or welfare of young people. By calling the anonymous tipline, a difference can be made, tragedy diverted and lives saved. Make the call! Keep an Eye on Your Supply: The Pittsford Alliance For Substance-Free Youth would like to remind parents to keep an eye on your supply of beer and alcohol. Holidays and cold weather are approaching and frequently we find ourselves with a lack of space for alcoholic beverages. It’s easiest to store them out on the porch, in a refrigerator in the garage or the garage itself. BUT……These are not the safest places as they provide easy access for teens and those underage the age of 21. Thefts of alcohol from garages and porches have increased and in most cases can be a felony. It is safest to lock them up…….
