As Director of a program very similar to '2 smart 2 smoke' l was thrilled to read of your study and positive results. Our tobacco use prevention show "Naturally High" targets the same audience with identical objectives and has been performed at over 89 schools in Hawaii and California since October 1996. It is a drama featuring six children performers using juggling, unicycling, stiltwalking, balancing and other circus skills blended with music. We have had outstanding reviews from teachers and students but have consistsnly been asked by potential funders for data regarding the effectiveness of our program. Your research offers some excellent support for this kind of tobacco prevention program. I wonder if you would be interested in expanding your evaluation to include our "Naturally High" program and if you can offer any assistance to us in our efforts to show our local Health authorities the benefits of this approach. sincerely yours, Graham Ellis for more information please see our web site at hiccupcircus.com |
