The Power of Choice: Drinking and Driving (Volume 7)

Grades 9-12.

Goals:

• To build young people's awareness of the issue of drinking & driving.
• To help them to see themselves as having the power to prevent drunk driving.
• To encourage them to anticipate when a drinking/driving situation may arise and plan alternatives.
• To show them that driving drunk, or going along with others who do, is always a matter of choice. And that they always have the power to make that choice for themselves.

The Power of Choice with Michael Pritchard is a 12-volume youth guidance video series aimed at empowering teenagers to make good choices in their lives. It teaches young people that they have the power of choice, that they are responsible for the choices they make, and that they owe it to themselves to choose the best.

Used as a springboard for group discussion, The Power of Choice is highly effective at triggering teenagers to talk openly about their personal thoughts, feelings, and experiences, and to look critically at how they make choices. Each program comes with a printable teaching guide filled with discussion questions, group activities, and writing assignments.
