Red Ribbon Week is known as the nation’s largest and first drug prevention campaign. Students are given their red ribbons on the first day of the week and are encouraged to wear them proudly. The red ribbon has gold lettering inscribed with, “Live Drug-Free” and “Celebrate Red Ribbon Week, not just for a week- but for life.”
