Welcome to the Elks National Drug Awareness Program's Marvel Video Comic "Hard Choices"!

The Elks Drug Awareness Program strives to teach all children and parents about the dangers of illegal drug use and prevent the abuse of legalized and prescription drugs. As the largest volunteer drug awareness program in the United States, the Elks Drug Awareness Program relies on state, district and lodge volunteers to promote a drug-free lifestyle. By taking pride in America's communities and youth, the Elks Drug Awareness Program takes action against youth drug use through education and inspiration. Every year, they hand out more than seven million pieces of anti-drug literature to parents, teachers and kids. The brochures are distributed through the program's 90 drug education trailers, which travel to community gatherings, fairs and sporting events.

This year, the Elks Drug Awareness Program teamed with Marvel Entertainment to produce a comic book featuring Marvel super heroes and Elroy the Elk in a battle against underage drinking. The Elks Drug Awareness Program would also like to thank the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration for their support of this program and for serving as the content consultant.

The Elks Drug Awareness Program also offers other educational materials such as tools for parents, videos, coloring books, posters and public service announcements, Visit www.elks.org/drugs for more information. And be sure to look for an Elks Drug Education trailer at an event in your community!
