Parents
Teaching your children to recognize the dangers of addiction can be difficult, especially if you don't know where to start.
The Manitoba Partners for Addictions Awareness Committee has created a number of resources to help you teach your children 
about a variety of addictions, ranging from drugs and alcohol, to inhalants and gambling.
Helping your whole family to understand and acknowledge addiction starts with having more information. Learning more about the many faces of addiction can help you, and your children, confront challenging situations with more confidence.
Use the resources provided here, or participate in the Manitoba Addictions Awareness Week activities in your community to help raise awareness and balance your life.
