honda
Honda knows it's important to educate young folks on their responsibilities on and off the road. With our partnership, we have developed a four-lesson program, It's More Than Just a License, that can be used in any classroom to supplement current Driver's Education content. Built to be distributed in a peer-to-peer format, with fun and engaging opportunities for students to learn and understand the risk of distractions and other issues, this program is made for all, regardless of access to a certified driver's education course.

The NIAAA Challenge inspires students to understand the effects of substances on their bodies and minds. Through an interactive contest, students submit their best ideas for engaging their peers in this conversation, talking about avoiding alcohol, drugs, and living a substance-free lifestyle.
