Model class in Aomori for addiction prevention, not just “no, never

Since the Basic Law on Alcohol and Health Disorders was formulated and the IR Promotion Law was passed, there has been a growing demand for “addiction prevention education. However, it is difficult to say that correct knowledge about addiction is widespread among teachers, school nurses, school counselors, PTAs, community groups, and others who lead educational and community activities. Therefore, what should be communicated in addiction prevention education and how? We will hold a “model class” to provide specific know-how on what to teach in addiction prevention education. We look forward to your participation in this event, whether you are involved in education or community activities. *July 31 P.S.: In view of the situation of the spread of the new coronavirus infection,The lecturers, Ms. Tomomi Imanari and Mr. Toshihiko Matsumoto, will be giving “ZOOM lectures” (lectures via internet).
