STUDENTS AGAINST DRINKING AND DRIVING (SADD) RECEIVE AWARD

Released on November 22, 1995

Jack Langford, MLA for Saskatchewan Rivers, on behalf of Health
Minister Lorne Calvert, today congratulated Students Against Drinking
and Driving (Saskatchewan) which was awarded a Medallion of Distinction
from the Canadian Centre on Substance Abuse (CCSA) at a Drug Awareness
Week breakfast ceremony today in Prince Albert. The breakfast was
sponsored by the Prince Albert Drug Awareness Week Committee.

"From its inception, SADD has had a significant impact on changing
public attitudes about drinking and driving, especially among our young
people," Langford said.

The focus of SADD is on preventing drinking and driving accidents
because they are the leading cause of death and injury among youth.
The SADD program and philosophy can be applied to a wide variety of
problems experienced by youth including alcohol and other drug abuse.

The 1995-96 school term is the SADD (Saskatchewan) tenth anniversary
year, and it is anticipated that the organization may reach 200
registered Saskatchewan chapters this year.

SADD's Medallion of Distinction is the third annual award by the
Ottawa-based CCSA. Saskatchewan's 1994 recipient was the Metis
Addiction Council of Saskatchewan Incorporated.

Also nominated for the 1995 CCSA Medallion were the Hudson Bay
Composite High Peer Support/Students Against Drinking and Driving
group, and Jack Greening of Christopher Lake. Greening is being
recognized for his extensive work in the addictions field and for
having been instrumental in the province's Driver Education and Driving
Without Impairment programs.
