Videos

See It, Say It Videos
The videos for school staff, youth, and parents come with a facilitator's guide to lead activities before the video, talks about actually showing the video, and activities to do following the video. Also 30 wallet cards with the See It, Say It 6 Steps come with each video.
- What to Say: A Lesson (For School Staff)
  In this video the host creates a "lesson" for school staff with three dramatizations: a maintenance work, teacher, and coach using the six-step process to talk with and listen to students whose behavior concerns them. This video is a real learning opportunity for school staff. (14:00)
- What Would You Do? (For Youth)
  Here's the deal. Your friend is using and you need to say something without turning into a complete dork. The video's teenage hosts take other teens through the steps of talking seriously to a friend about drug use- without pushing them away or turning them off. (11:00)
- Calm Down and Follow the Moves (For Parents)
  In this video the hosts show parents the difference between confronting children in anger and using the six-step process to really help kids stay away from drugs. (13:00)
- Time to Talk (For College Students)
  College students want to have fun, but they also don't want to see each other get hurt. This video is a dramatization of a six-step process college students can use when they want to talk to each other about behavior that concerns them. The script was developed and reviewed by college students themselves. (10:00)
People of Faith: Partners in Prevention
