Drug Free Kids Canada
May 17, 2023
Ensuring that all young people will be able to live their lives free of problematic substance use and addiction.
Drug Free Kids Canada (DFK) is building a movement that encourages and supports parents to prevent and reduce the harms of problematic drug use by youth.
We meet the needs of parents, guardians, caregivers, teachers, and health care professionals across the country by providing them with the most up-to-date and evidence-based information on youth and substance use, along with resources, tools and support.
DFK’s comprehensive website is the hub of all of our educational activities; allowing parents easy access to information on substances, drug prevention tools, and DFKC resources along with the strategies they need to communicate effectively with their children about a growing list of current issues.
