STMS Student 2025 (Post-event Survey)

Drug Store Project 2024

We hope that The Drug Store Project provided you with information about drugs and alcohol and their consequences. We also hope you learned more about those in the community that you can turn to for help. There was 45 organizations and agencies, and 100+ volunteers. It takes one full year to raise the money needed and to get the number of people to help make it run. We continue to do this in our community because we care about YOU.

This is your post-event survey. You will see the same questions you answered back in December before you learned about the facts plus a few more. Again, your answers are confidential, so it is very important that you answer to the best of your ability. This survey will also ask for your opinion as we want you to help us improve our program.

Thank you in advance for your help!
