Good Drugs Gone Bad: Prescription Drug Training of Trainers
Columbia St. Mary’s Hospital—Ozaukee

Mequon, WI 53907
Site Phone: (262) 243-7454
Prescription drug abuse is an epidemic, cutting across geographic, racial, ethnic and socioeconomic boundaries. Two-thirds (65 percent) of teens who abuse prescription painkillers say they got them from family members and friends (NSDUH, 2010).
Eighteen percent of Wisconsin high school students have reported taking a prescription drug without a doctor’s prescription (2011 Wisconsin Youth Risk Behavior Survey)
Teens don’t see this behavior as risky. They see their parents taking medicine— and they believe that since medicine is created and tested in a scientific
environment it is therefore safer to use than street drugs.
Come and learn about the real dangers of prescription and over-the-counter (OTC) drug abuse.
Learning Objectives—
Participants will:
- Learn about the growing problem of prescription drug and OTC drug abuse.
- Become familiar with emerging drug trends.
- Experience using the Good Drugs Gone Bad Toolkit.
Each participant will receive a copy of the Good Drugs Gone Bad Toolkit that contains ready-made prescription drug abuse presentations to target
audiences, PSAs, brochures/fact sheets, marketing and educational materials, facilitator guides and more.
Presenters:
Jason Weber and Aaron Zemlock, Town of Menasha Police Department
See more information on their website: http://www.gooddrugsgonebad.com/
Target Audience:
Counselors, Teachers, Administrators, Coalition Members, Law Enforcement, Community Members, and anyone interested in reducing prescription drug abuse
