Volunteers of the Say No to Drugs Association of Brussels bring the truth about crack and other harmful substances to the Percusounds Festival August 25-27 at Place de la Monnaie in the heart of Brussels.

Sharing vital information about crack cocaine to help counter the rising use of this dangerous drug

Volunteers of Say No to Drugs Brussels know the value of drug prevention and are eager to share it with other concerned individuals and groups to counter the use of crack cocaine in the city.

Sharing vital information with visitors to the Say No to Drugs booth

Drug prevention is more vital in Brussels than ever before, says Say No to Drugs Association, a nonprofit sponsored by the Churches of Scientology.

BRUSSELS, BELGIUM, September 6, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ — The use of crack has exploded in Brussels over the past few years, especially among the homeless. And dealers, seeking new customers, hang out around local schools to lure kids into its use. The fact is, however, that those experimenting with this substance can become addicted the first time they try it.

Say No to Drugs President Julie Delvaux says the importance of drug prevention is still grossly underestimated. “It is vital to inform young people, parents and teachers about the truth about drugs,” she says.

To reach out to youth before the dealers do, the Say No to Drugs Association of Brussels brought their drug education and prevention initiative to the popular Percusounds Festival in the heart of Brussels August 25-27, sharing the unvarnished truth about drugs with those attending.

New police data released by the Belgian Ministry of the Interior shows that the Brussels neighborhood of Saint-Gilles has become a hotspot for crime. And according to a recent article in Politico, “survey data from Transit, a local help center and shelter for people with drug and alcohol addiction, found that crack was the most consumed substance among hard drug takers in 2022, used by 67 percent of people surveyed.”

Crack is the crystal form of cocaine. According to the Foundation for a Drug-Free World’s Truth About Cocaine booklet, crack is not only the drug’s most potent form, it is also the riskiest.

The Say No to Drugs Association distributes information kits containing 14 booklets on the most commonly abused substances, from crack and cocaine to heroin, marijuana and prescription drugs.

Throughout the weekend, the Say No to Drugs festival booth was filled with parents, children and teens, social workers, teachers and representatives of other nonprofits asking for more information, wishing to partner with the association, and taking materials to use in their own drug-prevention activities.

Volunteers handed out more than 10,000 Truth About Drugs booklets over the weekend.

Active in Belgium for more than 20 years, the Say No to Drugs Association, sponsored by the Church of Scientology, is the Brussels chapter of the Foundation for a Drug-Free World.

For those wishing to learn how they can help their communities stem the tide of drug use and addiction, Scientology Network features episodes of the original series Voices for Humanity showcasing drug prevention activists who use the Truth About Drugs campaign. Scientology Network is available on DIRECTV Channel 320, DIRECTV STREAM, AT&T U-verse and can be streamed at www.Scientology.tv, on mobile apps and via the Roku, Amazon Fire and Apple TV platforms. The network has been viewed in 240 countries and territories worldwide in 17 languages, satisfying the curiosity of people about the Scientology religion, Founder L. Ron Hubbard, the religion’s beliefs and practices, and the humanitarian and social betterment programs the Church supports.

The next generation of an office pool party is here. Join for free today!

Pass-Sports.net is home to free personal pro football wagering analytics and the next generation office pool party.

Introducing PA$$, American Pro Football Personal Wagering Analytics Plus Next Generation Pool Parties—both 100% Free to Join.

DALLAS, TEXAS, USA, September 6, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ — Not much is certain these days but death, taxes … and the final score of an American pro football game. But after the day or night’s unalterable results, pro football handicappers are left to simply lick their wounds, or count their winnings and move on to next week’s schedule. In doing so, it’s without a second look back at tracking the past week’s results, and failure to analyze or use valuable analytical information.

Everyone wagering knows that winners one week can easily turn into losers the next. What if there was a way to get an extra analytical edge unique to each PA$$ Member, before next week’s wagers? And it was 100% free? This unique personal analytical edge not only lasts all season but expands each week with personal wagering analytics accumulating all season long.

Introducing PA$$. (Personal Analytics and Sports Statistics), available only on www.PASS-Sports.Net. PA$$ displays personal analytical results with easy-to-read data tools and charts and is available 24/7 via the cloud. PA$$ is 100% free to join and use throughout the entire 17-game season and the playoffs.

As Brad Morse, co-founder of PA$$ shared, “PA$$ removes a major blind spot for the millions of fans wagering on American pro football games every week and throughout the season. We let every fan easily track their personal analytical wagering data results as the season progresses, in just a few seconds. It’s our bet that the PA$$ Member’s ability to read and evaluate their own personal analytical results on a team-by-team, bet-by-bet basis will lead to smarter decisions throughout the season, as their own personal analytics will push each PA$$ Member in the right direction with a greater likelihood of success overall.”

How does PA$$ work, exactly? PA$$ records each PA$$ Member’s unique personal wagering analytics data for every game wagered on (for both the team bet on and against). No bets are placed on/through the PA$$ website. PA$$ allows each Member to record their own “BETS” placed legally as well as straight analytical (non-wagered) “Picks” on the site.

PA$$ automatically records, (and post-game, immediately calculates) the Member’s results and provides that personal analytical data. Members can record every BET and Pick they’ve made for each week’s schedule – including Against the Spread (“ATS”), Over/Unders (“O/U”), as well as Money Line bets and teases (from +/- 1 point up to +/- 10 points).

By recording the Member’s personal analytical data from their BETS and Picks of the week’s games, PA$$ helps identify “Strong” trends regarding teams successfully BET on (and bet against), as well as wagers seeing the greatest successes (and conversely, the greatest consistent disappointments). PA$$ provides each Member with a never-before-available reservoir of pro football personal analytics data and statistical analysis through its charts and data all 100% free for any American pro football fan throughout the season and playoffs.

PA$$ “Pool Parties”—Dive In!

PA$$ is not just for the serious (or casual) wagerer though. PA$$ also includes a 100% free “Pool Party” Option for each PA$$ Member. This unique feature gives each PA$$ Member the ability to create and launch their own private office pro football pool by becoming a PA$$ “Lifeguard” to their Pool Party. Each private Pool Party can hold up to 25 “Pool Party Guests”, with each Member able to create up to five private pro football Pool Parties. Dive in today to create an exclusive Pool Party and invite guests prior to the pro football season kickoff this Thursday night, September 7th, 2023.

For media inquiries on how PA$$ is a GameChanger for those betting on American pro football, email [email protected] or call 214-878-2390. To gain instant and free membership to both PA$$ and the Pool Party, just sign up today. Get ready to win, lose, and this season—LEARN from wise selections and ill-advised hunches.

ABOUT:
