Instructors reach students across county
Two Custer County
law enforcement officers bring Drug Abuse Resistance Education to students across the county each year. Capt. Dan Hanson of the Broken Bow
Police Department teaches classes in Broken Bow. Sgt. Dan
Osmond of the Custer County Sheriff's Office instructs students from Anselmo-Merna, Ansley, Arnold, Callaway and Oconto.
What is D.A.R.E.?
Drug Abuse Resistance Education (D.A.R.E.) is a program for young students, instructed by uniformed law enforcement officers.
D.A.R.E. instructors work with students to raise their self-esteem, teach them how to make decisions on their own and help
them identify positive alternatives to drugs. Since 1990, Broken
Bow Police Department and Custer County Sheriff's Office have brought the D.A.R.E. Program to approximately 300 fifth
and sixth graders in the county each year. In Broken Bow, the program
involves three classes of fifth graders at Custer Elementary School, averaging 75 to 80 total students per year. Following
the 10- week program, students celebrate completion of the class with D.A.R.E. graduation and a Lock-In Party that
further reinforces peer acceptance of a drug-free lifestyle.
