Through a grant from the Governor’s Highway Safety Office, the East Ridge Police Department will be assisting 1N3, the Hamilton County Health Department, Chattanooga Police, and other agencies in the Choices Matter Teen Maze held at Chattanooga State on March 8-11.
A Teen Maze has been described as a life-size game board to help teens see firsthand the consequence of life choices. Volunteers interact with teen participants in a fun and creative way to convey important and vital information about a variety of health and educational issues.
A Teen Maze educates teens about the consequences of life choices before they have to make those choices! It is a fun life-size interactive event. Topics include:
· drinking & driving
· legal consequence
· media myths and dangers
· education & career opportunities
· distracted driving
This will be made available to the sophomore students in Hamilton County and surrounding areas and will have over 1000 students participating this year. 1N3 is getting the community agencies, businesses, and organizations involved to collaborate and impact these students.
