Inspire healthy habits during Red Ribbon Week with our Design A Drug-Free Hero Activity.
Unleash Creativity & Design a Drug-Free Hero
Help students explore the positive traits that support healthy decision-making with Design a Drug-Free Hero templates. Through Design a Drug-Free Hero, students combine drawing, self-reflection, and writing to create a superhero who represents strong, healthy, drug-free choices.
Students develop a unique hero name, identify special powers, create a custom symbol, and write a memorable catchphrase. They also complete a personal pledge that encourages them to reflect on responsibility, self-confidence, and the everyday choices that contribute to a healthy lifestyle.
