South Bend fighting drug & alcohol abuse with Red Ribbon Week

Posted:

Red Ribbon week is fast approaching.  The red ribbon symbolizes a commitment to drug and alcohol-free lifestyles.

The week kicks off Monday with a march from the Colfax Culture Center to the Kroc Center.  After the march, kids will share their anti-drug and alcohol messages with skits.

One of the organizers, Gladys Muhammad, says this is a fun way to deliver a serious message.  "To focus on not doing drugs.  Also participate in a march in a healthy way to get involved and actively engage in doing something good for themselves," said Muhammad

If you're interested in marching, just be at the Colfax Center at 9:30am on October 26th.  Kids get a free shirt and several members of the community will be there including Mayor Pete Buttigieg.
