Red Ribbon Week: October 23-31

Red Ribbon Week is October 23-31. We use this week to raise awareness about substance use/misuse in our communities.
Red Ribbon Week is the nation’s oldest and largest drug use prevention awareness program. Red Ribbon Week started after the death of DEA Special Agent Enrique “Kiki” Camarena, who in 1985 was brutally tortured and murdered by drug traffickers he
was investigating in Mexico.
After Kiki’s death, people started wearing red ribbons to honor his sacrifice. Today, millions of people celebrate Red Ribbon Week by wearing red ribbons, participating in community drug use prevention events, and pledging to live drug-free lives.
Please follow us throughout the month for more information about ways you can get involved. this #RedRibbonWeek.
