Drug Abuse Resistance Education (D.A.R.E.) is a program which was founded in Los Angeles, California in 1983. D.A.R.E is more than just drug prevention; D.A.R.E is a community approach to the problems facing our children today as well as in the future. We are sure your child will enjoy the D.A.R.E Program and that the lessons learned will last them a lifetime! If you would like to hear more about D.A.R.E at your club or organization, please contact Officer Jamie Robie at 207-363-4444. Visit the Lucky Kat World website.
