DARE was founded to extend the program's benefit to elementary and high-school students at the Price Lab School, located on the UNI Campus. DARE's cooperative effort is bolstered by the DPS, Price Lab School, and the PLS boosters who work together to further the program.
Lessons are also available to kindergarten, second, and fourth grade students.
The importance of communicating with youths and equipping them with the skills to resist the temptations of drugs and violence is immeasurable. The interaction between the DPS officers and students in the classroom broadens our sense of community.
