Scientology Volunteers Bring Drug-Prevention Education to Clondalkin Festival
Volunteers from the Scientology Community Centre Dublin brought drug-prevention education to the Clondalkin Festival in Ireland, sharing factual information with families, young people and local residents in a busy community setting.
The stand provided booklets and displays on commonly abused substances, giving parents, young people and community volunteers members an opportunity to learn more about drug risks and prevention in an informal festival environment.
The outreach was connected to the broader Truth About Drugs campaign, which uses booklets, videos and educational resources to communicate straightforward facts about drug use and its consequences.
The Church of Scientology supports this campaign as part of its wider social-betterment work inspired by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard, whose writings placed emphasis on education, personal responsibility and practical help for society.
Ivan Arjona, representative of the Church of Scientology to the EU, OSCE, Council of Europe and UN, said that such initiatives reflect civic responsibility in practice. “Drug-prevention education is most effective when it is brought close to people, in places where families, young people and neighbours already meet,” he said.
