FIVE FACTS FROM THE SOURCE (Embedded): 1. The D.A.R.E program helps people "keep it real" and tell people how these prevetion programs can make people benefit from it.

2. In the D.A.R.E advisory board with the youth group is "composed of 50 members, one student per state", which can give other young people a chance to relate to them more.

3. "Drug and kids" is what every parent must face when their child hits the teenage years. This webiste can help parents see the symptoms of what their kids might have.

4. According to this website, "children around the world" would benefit from this program if they get the information early enough.

5. This program is "so successful" that most police agencies support it to the fullest.

Summary of Source (Three-Four Sentences of the Who, What, Where, Why, and How in your own words. NO OPINION):

This D.A.R.E program helps a lot of children see the side effects of what can happen to them. A police officer wanted to make children aware of the side effects and this particualr website can help both children and parents see the problems. This program is starting to be offered at a lot of police stations and school that support it.

Credibility of Source:
Author or Site: Who is the author? What training have they had? If there is no author, examine the site. What is the purpose of the site? Who funds the site?
The purpose of this site is to both make people aware of how drugs can affect people but also how you can volunteer your services to your community. This offers people to ask questions and gives them addresses of police stations to see how they can help.

Attachment: Does the author or site have anything to gain from writing this, or is it simply informative? For example, is it a cigarette business posting an article about the benefit of cigarettes, or is it a scientific community unaffiliated with the cigarette business?

The author does not gain anything from this website besides having an audience to get information out there. It is not necessarily a "scientific community" but just gives back to the community on the information of drugs and programs for children.  

Bias: Do you detect a bias (a favoring of either side) in the author's writing?
I do not notice a bias opinion on this website but it only tells one side of the story rather than both of the addict's side, too.

References: Does the author cite references in the writing? If so, do these add or take away from the credibility?
No the author does not cite any references.

Use of Source: How will you use this source in your project?
They give out addresses and phone numbers on where you can send your questions if you need any help. So I plan on using this information and volunteer services to help in my powerpoint.
