Partnership for a Drug-Free America's Time To Talk.

That is why Comcast is a sponsor of Partnership for a Drug-Free America's Time To Talk. Since the inception of the Partnership, Comcast has provided more than $100 million in air time, digital advertising and other contributions. Time to Talk's online toolkit is the frontline approach to the Partnership's nationwide movement that reinforces the huge influence parents and caregivers have in helping children make healthy choices. Research shows that kids who consistently learn a lot about the risks of drugs and alcohol at home are up to 50% less likely to use than those who do not. Talking to your kids about the risks isn't as hard as you think. The Partnership helps make the conversation even easier with free, easy-to-use research-based tools, tips and monthly alerts to help you have ongoing discussions with your kids to help keep them healthy and drug-free.

There are great tools such as "How to start talking" and "Answer the question: "Did you do drugs?'" There is also a "TV Teachable Moments" tool that helps turn watching television with your child into an opportunity to talk about tough issues like alcohol, tobacco and illegal drugs.

You are the most powerful influence in your child's life – greater than friends, athletes, musicians, and even celebrities!

Learn more to help start the conversation and keep it going.

Your friends at Comcast
