Listen to find out -- and learn why D.A.R.E.\u2019s abstinence-based approach to drug education was so unsuccessful, what alternatives exist, and where you can get yourself some D.A.R.E. merch to pull off the 90s alt-aesthetic you\u2019ve always wanted.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; To learn more about DPA\u2019s harm-reduction based drug education curriculum Safety First, visit  drugpolicy.org\/safetyfirst. &amp;nbsp; Special thanks to our intern Jake Samieske for his help on this episode.
