DAWG MISSION STATEMENT

The mission of the Drug & Alcohol Awareness Group (DAWG) is to provide services to students, parents, faculty and our community, to help overcome alcohol and drug
difficulties and to offer every student in our school, to become alcohol and drug free-or
if already alcohol & drug free, to remain that way and positively influence our peers to
do the same. The impact of the Drug & Alcohol Awareness Group (DAWG) is to assist
the students in attaining clean and sober functioning as well as life long success.
