Take a Bite out of Crime
The National Citizens' Crime Prevention campaign's initiative aims to involve adults and teens in crime prevention activities that build safer communities and reduce crime.

Message Maker
As part of the National Youth Anti-Drug Media Campaign, the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) has launched an interactive online tool. Message Maker enables users to create stickers, magnets, iron-on transfers, transparencies, notecards, and other media to craft unique messages identifying influences acting against drug use, i.e.,  "anti-drugs." The Message Maker can be especially useful for youth leaders wishing to create low-cost materials with anti-drug messages for their club, team, or group.

The Partnership for a Drug Free America
By changing public attitudes about drugs, the Partnership seeks to "denormalize" drug use, making use less glamorous and less acceptable. Their comprehensive site includes a database of drug information, tips on how to talk to kids about drug use, FAQ's (frequently asked questions), and more.
