THE 2020 THEME: Be Happy. Be Brave. Be Drug Free. (TM)
This year's Red Ribbon Week theme will help amplify the campaign's mission to encourage children, families and communities to live healthy, happy and drug-free lives. It also serves as a reminder that we are all empowered with shaping the communities around us through positivity, bravery and strength.
What Is Red Ribbon Week?
It is an ideal way for people and communities to unite and take a visible stand against drugs. Show
your personal commitment to a drug-free lifestyle through the symbol of the Red Ribbon, October
23 - 31st.
Why?
The Red Ribbon Campaign® was started when drug traffickers in Mexico City murdered DEA agent Kiki Camarena in 1985. This began the continuing tradition of displaying Red Ribbons as a symbol of intolerance towards the use of drugs. The mission of the Red Ribbon Campaign® is to present a unified and visible commitment towards the creation of a DRUG - FREE AMERICA.
