Rather than give students all of the information about alcohol and drugs myself, in this activity, they are split into groups and tasked with researching and presenting on one of the topics. As the presentations happen, I am able to ask clarifying questions and fill in any holes.

Update to MyPlate

Remember the Food Guide Pyramid? It was great for its time, but much has changed since 1992. USDA invites you to update to MyPlate. It's the modern way to eat better every day. It's easy to use, customizable, based on science, and an overall great way to enjoy healthier eating.

Launched in 2011, MyPlate's symbol is a simple visual reminder to choose a variety of foods throughout the day and throughout the week. It represents what and how much to eat from each of the food groups over the course of the day, whether you eat on a plate, from a bowl, or another way.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
What is MyPlate? USDA MyPlate is the five food groups! The benefits of healthy eating add up over time, bite by bite. Small changes matter. Start Simple with MyPlate. A healthy eating routine is important at every stage of life and can have positive effects that add up over time.

Curiosity and learning are great, so lace up, strap on, or slip on your sneakers and let's learn about mental health.

Teaching kids about the skills of consent can help reduce sexual coercion, harassment, and even assault.
The ASK. LISTEN. RESPECT. video was created for tweens and teens ages 11-16 to show concrete examples of: how to ask for consent; what enthusiastic, verbal consent looks like, and; how to respond to "no" respectfully.
You can use the video and accompanying discussion guides (one for PARENTS, one for GROUP FACILITATORS) to spark conversations with teens about respectful relationships, the importance of consent, and how teens can ask for and give consent in their friendships and dating relationships.

The ASK. LISTEN. RESPECT. video was created to promote healthy relationships among tweens and teens by providing concrete examples of how to ask for consent, what enthusiastic, verbal consent looks like, and how to accept "no" as normal boundary-setting in relationships.

The video and two accompanying discussion guides (one for PARENTS, one for GROUP FACILITATORS) can be used in a classroom setting, with a small group of tweens/teens, or one-on-one with an adult who can lead an informed discussion.

Not all 11-16 year olds are dating, but most have probably thought about what it means to be in a dating relationship.

Attitudes and beliefs formed during these critical years will most likely affect how they treat their dating partners now and in the future.

According to the National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey Report¹:

* 1 in 5 females and 1 in 7 males who ever experienced rape, physical violence, and/or stalking by an intimate partner, first experienced some form of intimate partner violence between 11 and 17 years of age.

* More than half of all rapes of females occur before age 18; 22% occur before the age of 12.

* Adolescent girls who experience dating violence are more likely to exhibit other serious behaviors such as substance abuse, increased suicide attempts, unhealthy weight control, and risky sexual behavior.

Sexual violence is a big problem in young dating relationships in part because teens are not clear on what consent means, nor how to ask for it.
