Title: Lessons From the Battle Over D.A.R.E.: The Complicated Relationship Between Research and Practice
Summary: There have been many articles written about Drug Abuse Resistance Education (D.A.R.E) that tell how D.A.R.E. America has been able to convince educators and the public into supporting the program over the objections of researchers. A closer look reveals that many local practitioners were able to sift through the competing claims of research and D.A.R.E. American and make reasoned judgements about whether to keep D.A.R.E. In general, local officials reached their own conclusions about what made the most sense for their jurisdictions. The controversy exposed a gap between researchers and practitioners that continues.
