- The final edition of the largest evaluation of the DARE program
- has concluded that the Anti-Drug program does not reduce drug
- use, and in at least category of pot, the DARE graduates
- smoked more frequently than the control.
-
- The report concluded:
-
- "The DARE program's limited effect on adolesent drug use contrasts
- with the program's popularity and prevalence. An important implication
- is that DARE could be taking the place of other, more beneficial
- drug education programs that kids could be receiving"
