The Town of Bethel, the school district and Bethel Police are hosting an event for parents called "Hidden in Plain Sight: What are you not seeing?".  The interactive substance abuse prevention program was created by the Connecticut Association of Prevention Professionals.

Parents, educators and other adults who work with youth will be challenged to find drug and alcohol related items that most adults would never be able to find in a mock teen bedroom.  Adults will be able to walk through and experience a hands-on search for clues of high risk behavior.  

The HERO Project is also a partner in this presentation about youth drug and alcohol trends. 

A police officer will be in attendance to answer questions about concealment areas, hidden containers, clothing, paraphernalia, logos and related areas.  The event is free, but there are limited spots for participants.  It's Thursday October 10th from 6:30pm to 8:30 in the Bethel Middle School auditorium.
