A bit late, but none the less

So, I've neglected to post for quite a while.

My creative project has been on Prescription Drug Abuse.
I've done a bit of research on the matter, mainly talking to family members and scanning through webpages. Through it I've seen mainly the numbers of addiction and how it effects people.
Interestingly enough the representative for Cape Cod is very active in drug abuse policies, but mainly just on their regulation. I've decided to write to him and actually finished typing up the letter earlier today.

Turns out drug abuse in teenagers is most common in the ages 16-17, which isn't all that surprising but I would have thought it would be in the younger ages as they don't have as much access to things like Alcohol and Marijuana. I also found that prescription drugs are the second most commonly used drug, second only to Marijuana (which isn't very surprising that marijuana is #1)

Another note, my creative project is completed and would be ready for printing and producing if I had the resources to do such. Until then it'll remain a plan that can undergo changes. It's a solid brochure that lists facts and safety tips for those addicted, tips for parents to talk to their kids and numbers to call/places to go if people are addicted.

So I've got pretty much everything done for the Be the Change, aside from the service portion which I guess I can't really do anymore. But now I know next time a project calls for community service to be out there as soon as possible to complete it.

Overall, the "Be the Change" project offered a lot more of a challenge then I was expecting. Probably should have spent more time working on it through out the semester. The first semester of college was a lot different then I was expecting and while I do most of what was due done I could have been producing better products and been better at doing things on time. At least I was in the right place to make mistakes instead of paying 40,000$ to do the same thing and mess up just as much. This way I can learn from my mistakes and not be heavily in debt due to them.
