Dear Colleague:
Thank you for contacting the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) for
information about "Just Say No" Clubs. NIDA is excited about this new and
fast-growing drug abuse prevention effort for young people. We have
developed the "Just Say No" initiative by drawing on research findings from
studies assessing strategies for prevention and delaying the onset of drug
use. In 1984–85, we incorporated this initiative into a full-scale media
campaign directed at young people and their parents. With our campaign
serving as the catalyst, the first "Just Say No" Club was formed in Oakland,
California in February 1985 with the encouragement of NIDA and Oakland
Parents in Action.
NIDA has since been instrumental in stimulating national organizations such
as Optimists International to promote the concept and assist in club
formation. Clubs are forming around the country at an ever-increasing
rate. Late in 1985, NBC began promoting "Just Say No" Clubs through
National Spokeskid Punky Brewster and the mailing of an educational kit to
every elementary school in the country. In 1986, the Just Say No Foundation
was formed, with First Lady Nancy Reagan as National Chairperson. Clearly,
the interest in this activity, and the energies being brought to it, are
substantial. .*

"JUST SAY NO" CLUBS RESOURCE PAPER
Introduction
Just over a year ago, fourth and fifth graders at Peralta Year Round School
in Oakland, California, started the first "Just Say No" Club. Since that
time thousands of young people across the United States have formed their
own "Just Say No" Clubs, and thousands more are joining in 1986. Excitement
about this movement has been felt by people in all walks of life. First
Lady Nancy Reagan expressed her wish for 1986 that every youngster in the
world join the "Just Say No" Clubs. The National Broadcasting Company (NBC)
produced a special episode of the popular "Punky Brewster Show" about how
kids can band together to say "no" to drugs. The Optimists have chosen the
"Just Say No" Club movement as one of their major programs for 1986. The
Mational Institute on Drug Abuse has dedicated valuable resources to support
the growing numbers of clubs. And most importantly, young people themselves
have recognized the importance and power of "Just Say No" Clubs that enable
them to stand together against the destructive potential of drugs.
For the first time in this country, a program developed by and for kids to
prevent drug abuse, using tested peer resistance and peer pressure
strategies, holds out hope for the future of our children. Through
membership in "Just Say No" Clubs, young people ages 7-14 can participate in
a movement to resist drug abuse and reinforce healthy productive lifestyles.
Saying "no" to drugs is a simple but profound message for young people and
for those who care about them. The more young people who are able to resist
peer pressure to use drugs, the more likely this country is to finally see a
generation Strong enough to live in a drug-free environment.
"Just Say No" Clubs
"Just Say No" Clubs have a lot in common. They are formed by young people
in schools, community organizations, youth clubs and churches and
synagogues. They are supported and guided by adults in all walks of life.
The clubs provide a mechanism for public commitments to say "no" to drugs
through posters, buttons, booklets, t-shirts and other club identification
methods. And most importantly, while saying "no" to drugs, the clubs say
"yes" to positive and healthy and fun activities. "Just Say No" Clubs
develop their own programs based on what young people believe they should
do. Clubs are involved in community service work, recreational and
theatrical activities, drug and alcohol education programs, and just having
fun. - -
"Just Say No" Club Activities
Because kids are the Heart of the "Just Say Ho" Club movement, club
activities vary with each group and each community. The themes are common
to all clubs, however, alcohol and drug abuse prevention, promotion of

healthy lifestyles, peer support for "no drug" choices, and a club process
that puts the decision-making, planning, and action into the hands of the
kids themselves. Club activities have included:
O "Just Say No" rallies
O Recreational activities, like bowling leagues, and other sporting
events
O Newsletters
O Field trips to community installations like the firehouse, local
businesses, the mayor's office and nursing homes
O Involvement in community projects
O Poster and essay contests
O Career and vocation education through contacts with community
mentors

JUST SAY NO TO DRUGS WEEK
The Senate proceeded to consider
the joint resolution (S.J. Res. 337) des-
ignating May 18–24, 1986, as “Just Say
No To Drugs Week.”
JUST SAY NO to DRUGS WEEK
By request of Mr. DOLE, the follow-
ing statement was ordered to be print-
ed in the RECORD.
© Mrs. HAWKINS. Mr. President,
today the Senate is considering my
resolution, Senate Joint Resolution
337 designating the week of May 18–24
as “National Just Say No To Drugs
Week’’.
We all remember what it was like to
be a teenager, try though we might to
forget. We recall an awkward time—a
time of high on stress and low on self-
esteem. It was a time of mental and
physical growth. A scary time when
fitting in seemed to take precedence
over everything else. There was noth-
ing our parents could say or do that
did not strike us as inappropriate, em-
barrassing or an infringement on Our
freedom.
Those of us who are parents of
grown children, and to a greater
extent, those of us with younger chil-
dren know that today's children are
not much different. Though they may
dress and talk with Shocking Sophisti-
cation, they are Still children, just as
we were. But unlike us, the young
people of today are growing up in a
vastly more complicated era. In addi-
tion to those doubts and temptations
we struggled with, today's teens must
cope with a host of frightening,
modern realities.
The most distressing Of these is the
temptation to get involved with illegal
drugs.
The latest figures from the Alcohol,
Drug AbuSe and Mental Health Ad-
ministration are shocking.
Approximately 6.2 million young
Americans between the ages of 12–17
have used marijuana at some time
during their lives.
Nearly two-thirds—61 percent—of all
American high School seniors use an il-
licit drug at least once before they
finish high school.
COcaine has been tried by at least 17
percent of Seniors in the class of
1985—the highest rate so observed so
far in the National High School Senior
Survey.
One out of every 20 high school sen-
iors Smokes marijuana on a daily basis.
And most disturbingly, motor vehi-
cle accidents involving chemical im-
pairment are the leading cause of
death for Americans aged 15 to 19.
What will become of the minds—the
leaders of tomorrow?
Well, Mr. President, there is good

children—all over America will send
the message that this situation is not
hopeless. On May 22 the drug-free
youth of America will take a stand.
They will declare that they are public.
ly and privately resisting peer pressure
to take drugs by forming clubs which
help them to just-say-no. That day
they will also participate in a series of
“Walk Against Drugs” events nation-
wide.
I am offering this resolution, desig-
nating the week of May 18–24 as
“Just-Say-No-To-Drugs Month” to
honor these brave children. To let
them know that we Support and ap-
plaud those young people who are
tired of having drugs considered a part
of growing up—who are tired of
having drugs sold in their schools and
communities, and who are finding the
inner strength and courage to Say no
to drugs.
Mr. President, it seems to be the
case in this country that we never put
a stop light on the corner until after
someone has been hurt. For years, this
has been our approach to drug abuse.
We always seem to be offering too
little, too late. It is tough to sell pre-
vention. It is difficult to convince
people that early detection of drug use
works. But this is What we must do.
The children who will join together
for the “Walk Against Drugs” know
this to be true and they are taking
positive action to make their world
and all our lives better and richer by
keeping them drug-free.e
The joint resolution (S.J. Res. 337),
was considered, ordered to be en-
grossed for a third reading, read the
third time and passed.
The preamble was agreed to.
The joint resolution, and the pream-
ble, ane as follows:
S.J. RES. 337
Whereas America's youth are our Nation's
most precious resource;
Whereas young people are contributing to
drug abuse prevention by starting “Just Say
No” clubs and Saying “no" to drugs,
Whereas children across America will par-
ticipate in a Walk Against Drugs on May 22,
Whereas America's youth should be recog.
nized and encouraged for their efforts in
the fight against drug abuse: Now, there.
fore, be it
Resolved by the Senate and House of Rep-
resentatives of the United States of America
in Congress assembled, That in recognition
of this Nation's young people to publically
fight drug abuse by just saying “no" to
drugs and thereby contributing to the end
of drug abuse in America, the President is
directed to issue a proclamation designating
the week of May 18-24, 1986 as “Just Say
No to Drugs Week,” and calling on the
people of the United States to observe this
week with appropriate programs, ceremo-
Inies, and activities.
Mr. DOLE. Mr. President, I move to
reconsider the votes by which the res-
olutions were passed or agreed to.
Mr. BYRD. I move to lay that
motion on the table.

major club-related events, reports of activities of individual clubs, informa-
tion about drugs and drug abuse, contests, resources, pen-pals, and a special
section for adult leaders. The magazine will also include essays and artwork
by club members.


O C) "Just Say No" Club Members' Handbook. The member's handbook will be
written in a simple, "how-to" format. It will contain general information
about Just Say No Clubs, updated facts about drugs and drug abuse, discussion
of reasons why people use drugs, and suggested club activities. It will set a
positive and supportive tone for new and existing clubs.
Just Say No Headquarters staff have begun compiling a national directory of Just
Say No Clubs. Questionnaires will be sent to all those on our mailing list (everyone
who has contacted us for information) later this spring. The mailout will include

JUST SAY NO HIGHLIGHTS
Hssue Number 15
June 6, 1986 -
Prepared by: Tom Adams, Executive Director
Just Say No Foundation
O During national Just Say No to Drugs Week, the young people of America
were stars in their communities as they publicly expressed their resolve to
shun drug and alcohol use. They recited their Just Say No Pledge, carried
signs, chanted, and cheered. They let their communities know that drug and
alcohol use by young people is unacceptable. The Just Say No Foundation will
provide continuing support and activities to reinforce their resolve to keep
the norm among their age group—to be drug and alcohol free. These millions
of young people have had great support. First Lady Nancy Reagan inspired
them and many of their peers were leaders in this national event. The
O following are examples of youth leadership: .
o Soleil Moofi Frye, (star of the "Punky Brewster" television show), the
national chairkid of Just Say No, traveled more than 6000 miles during
Just Say No Week. She met with 6500 kids in Nashville's Centennial Park
for a lively rally on May 18. Later that afternoon she flew in Barbara
Mandrell's helicopter to nearby Hendersonville where she led a walk of
450 of the town's 600 kids under the age of 12 to the city park for a
jamboree. On Monday she took Governor Alexander's airplane to Lake
County (Reel Foot Lake) in west Tennessee. There she led a rally of 3500
kids and their parents at Tiptonville High School football field. The
county has only 8000 residents. Soleil gave a moving speech at the rally
and led the kids in the Just Say No Pledge. While in Tennessee, Soleil
collected the "keys" to Nashville and Lake County. (She promised not to
lose them.) She recruited Barbara Mandrell's 8-year-old daughter and

State of California as a national non-profit corporation to serve as the
governing organization for the "Just Say No" Clubs.
{} First Lady Nancy Reagan, in her Washington Post article dated July 7, wrote,
"Well, today those of us fighting against drugs don't have to justify our
actions. Those who would do nothing or ignore drug use must justify
theirs...There's been tremendous growth in the numbers of parent groups and
service clubs working to increase drug awareness. Kids themselves have been
O getting involved in "Just Say No" Clubs...I believe it's time to let people know
that they have a personal, moral responsibility to fight drug abuse."

Kirk Cameron, 15-year-old star of ABC's Growing Pains, met with Just Say
No Foundation staff to discuss making a public service announcement for
"Just Say No" Clubs through Warner Brothers Studios in Burbank, California.
He will appear in a 30-second PSA. Filming will take place during the week
of July 28. The theme of the PSA is that teen agers sometimes get younger
kids to use drugs and alcohol; but that it doesn't have to be that way. They
can set good examples and help kids say no--even start a "Just Say No" Club.
Copies will be provided to "Just Say No" Clubs in communities where ABC-TV
affiliates are located. Club members and supporters can ask the station
public affairs director to air this spot.
Lt. Gilliland, U.S. Navy Surface Group of Long Beach, California has

education program.
Norman Murphy, Lion's Club District Drug Awareness Officer of Worsley and
District, Salford, England, has contacted The Just Say No Foundation to
inquire about the Lions' sponsorship of "Just Say No" Clubs in England. He
wrote, "We are dealing with a plague...an epidemic of world-wide proportions.
It is not much use trying to control it merely by treatment of the addict...it
is necessary to provide, at an early age, some degree of immunity...I am very
much in favor of creating some degree of immunity, at the youngest possible
age. Accordingly, your Foundation's idea of immunity by means of peer-
group pressure seems to be worthy of adoption/adaptation in the United
Kingdom and Eire." We look forward to working with Mr. Murphy.

What Are "Just Say No" Clubs?
"Just Say No" Clubs are groups of children, 7-14 years old, united in their
commitment not to drink or use drugs. Through a variety of educational, recre-
ational, and service activities--all grounded in the latest research--the clubs
seek to strengthen the non-use norm that exists among young children, providing
support and encouragement throughout the critical upper elementary and junior
high years.
Young people today grow up in a world where drinking and drug use are
often viewed as "normal," even acceptable. "Just Say No" Clubs seek to counter
that perception, and to reinforce the message that drug use is wrong. Members
pledge publicly to say "no" to drugs and alcohol, and encourage their peers to join
them. They learn to stand up for what they know is right, and feel good about
themselves for doing so.
Educational strategies. Members learn about peer pressure and other
social factors that influence their decisions about drug and alcohol use. They are
taught to question the motives of "friends" who pressure them to take part in any
dangerous or illegal activity. They practice saying no in the kinds of situations
in which most young people will at some time find themselves. They create and
-3-
perform skits, songs, and cheers with the "Just Say No" theme. They take part in
the annual national "Just Say No" Walk Against Drugs.
Particular emphasis is placed on the "gateway" drugs--alcohol, tobacco,
and marijuana--which most youngsters use first and through which most are
introduced to various illicit drugs. Educational activities are structured in a way
that teaches and strengthens the social skills that most youthful drug abusers are
lacking--communication, assertiveness, problem-solving, and conflict-resolution.
Recreation. Having fun is a priority in "Just Say No" Clubs. Games,
sports, crafts, hobbies, and field trips are an integral part of the program.
Recreational activities help members develop constructive outside interests.
Service projects. Service projects, often offered in conjunction with local
service organizations, teach responsibility by allowing children to make real and
meaningful contributions to the world in which they live.
In less than two years, the "Just Say No" movement has grown from three
clubs in inner-city Oakland, California to thousands of clubs nationwide. New
chapters are being formed every day.
"Just Say No" Clubs
In the Schools
The school is an ideal setting for "Just Say No" Clubs, offering three
ingredients essential to their success:
o A safe and accessible place to meet
o Qualified adult leaders
o A supportive environment.
The flexible "Just Say No" Club program can be adapted to meet the unique
needs of any school. It can be offered as an after-school event, or incorporated
into the curriculum. It can be delivered by a teacher, counselor, health
specialist, or other individual experienced in working with young people.
The "Just Say No" Club Adult Leader's Handbook describes the theoretical
and research foundations of the program, and gives clear, step-by-step instruc-
tions for carrying out activities, dozens of which are suggested. The guide was
developed by a health educator, sociologist, and marriage, family and child
counselor, under the supervision of a clinical psychologist and former teacher.
All of whom are authorities on preventing drug abuse. For ordering information
contact the Just Say No Foundation.
Administrators find parent-teacher groups and other community organiza-
tions eager to help. Volunteers can share their special talents and skills with
students. Service organizations—a number of which have pledged their support--
can be called on to sponsor clubs and to help organize and operate service pro-
jects. Older students, who assist adult leaders, serve as positive role models for
club members.
In areas where a large proportion of the student body is bused to school, it
may be more practical to establish clubs at neighborhood centers, churches, or at
facilities made available by community agencies and organizations. Some clubs
are formed within existing youth programs, such as scout troops or boys/girls
clubs.

By supporting "Just Say No" Clubs in your school, you are showing students
that you support members' commitment to lead drug-free lives. And you are
demonstrating to the community that you are are willing to translate your
concern about the drug problem into positive actions.

The Just Say No Foundation: Here to Help
The Just Say No Foundation was created in July 1986 to provide a national
link for all "Just Say No" Clubs through fundraising and the distribution of
materials and information. All Foundation efforts help to support local "Just Say
No" Clubs. By keeping the Foundation informed of all "Just Say No" Clubs and
activities, communities can strengthen the overall "Just Say No" effort. The
Foundation is a nonprofit California corporation.
Experts in drug abuse prevention, education, youth programs, and public
health comprise the Foundation's professional staff, which is responsible for the
development of written and audiovisual program materials. New materials are
made available regularly to clubs that have registered with the Foundation. The
- Foundation encourages you to plan regular school and community events that
promote the efforts of the "Just Say No" Clubs. The children need your support.

Gary Baker is a runner, a walker, a father of two young sons, and a concerned citizen. His concern is about the
drug and alcohol use of more and more young people across America. Starting on July 16, 1986, Gary will be
running and walking across the United States. Gary's support van driver is Spencer Jones. Spencer is also
concerned about drug and alcohol use among our nation's youth. The message Gary and Spencer are carrying is
a simple one: You can be a strong, independent, and happy person without the use of drugs or alcohol. You can
“Mºst Say No" to drugs and alcohol.
Gary and Spencer challenge your school, group, or town to form a “Just Say No” club, or if you already have a
club, the challenge is to form new chapters. Also, Gary and Spencer are challenging all young people to “Just
Say No” and to run or walk with Gary for one mile or more to show their commitment to a drug and alcohol free
lifestyle.
Your group, or you as an individual can get involved with the “Just Say No” Marathon by
taking the following PSA (Public Service Announcement) to your local radio and T.V.
stations, and newspapers.
