    Heads-up Program

    The Heads-up Program was established to attack the drug problems from a preventive standpoint. The Philadelphia Police Department has come to realize the importance of presenting a no holds barred outlook on the true damage and destruction that drugs are causing on young and old alike.

    The Heads-up Team has received numerous letters from youth that have seen the program and have been positively affected. These children describe in their stories how they either received help as a result of the program, or they have sought help for their friends.

    The program delivers a powerful message. During a recent presentation at the New Start Recovery Center at 15th and Erie, there was a young man sitting in the front. At the beginning of the program, he acted like he was too tough to listen. When the presentation was over, the young man told the presenter, "You know I was going to get out of here and go back to doing the same thing, but after seeing that, I know I have to change my life."

    For more information or to schedule a presentation, please contact Heads-up at 215-685-1120 or 215-685-1121 or fax 215-683-2865.
