Activity Ideas
The following activities are designed to be implemented during Red Ribbon Week and throughout the year. It is important to make sure all activities for Red Ribbon Week are approved by your school administration, as there are protocols that need to be considered when hosting activities both in-person and virtually and school/district policies vary.
The ideas presented here have been shared with us by schools and community organizations throughout the state of California. These ideas are meant to be developed or adapted to fit your group’s particular goals.
For additional activity ideas, you can visit the National Family Partnerships Red Ribbon Week page.
