Do you feel that the Masjid offers enough information for youths about drugs and how they look(especially in countries where drug use is prevalent)?

Do you feel enough is being done to discourage the use of drugs? Such as education?

Juvenile Rehab Record for Police Academy?

Question by Skittles: Juvenile rehab record for Police Academy?
I’m 23 and I’m preparing to enter the police academy. I haven’t applied yet but I have a question about the background check. When I was 14-15 I entered a rehabilitation clinic for minor drug use and also entered a mental health facility for depression (both voluntary). I was in the rehab for two weeks and the mental health facility for about a week. I haven’t had any problems since and have used no drugs since. Since it happened when I was a juvenile, will the police academy still be able to access those records and if they can will they hold it against me? I live in PA by the way. If they will hold it against me, is there anyway for me to fight that? I have never gotten in trouble with the police and have been clean since the rehab. Is there any way I can get those records erased?

Drug Abuse Resistance Education, better known as DARE, is an international education program that seeks to prevent use of controlled drugs, membership in gangs, and violent behavior. D.A.R.E., which has expanded globally since its founding in 1983, is a demand-side drug control strategy of the U.S. War on Drugs. Students who enter the program sign a pledge not to use drugs or join gangs and are taught by local law enforcement about the dangers of drug use in an interactive in-school curriculum which lasts ten weeks. D.A.R.E. America has its headquarters in Inglewood, California.

Every person I saw on photos etc.from typhoon are completely tore back with layered drug addictions. Toxic algae blooms produce gas that affect our weather and people that use put bad things in water that cause toxic algae blooms. Are the filipinos are going to sober up–are we just making a bad situation worse by helping them out–are the neighboring countries going to have more problems now with all this help? In america-I’ve seen some clean and sober filipinos but alot were in wannabe racketeering groups and foreign organized drug fronts etc .that caused great suffering in america–are we setting ourselves up for a fall.
“clncarplz” I waited to say something till after they had some kind of support–but YOU know and I know THERE TORE BACK BIG TIME , helping the filipinos will probably hurt more than help–ESPECIALLY them, china and korea has to “police” the area after the big junkie trash fecal blowout—-which costs millions of dollars just to keep their areas safe–IN FACT, they’ll have to drop this to a zoonotic conflict and outbreak from happening:
