BOSTON – Local members of the Church of Scientology, a religion well-known for its stance against mind altering drugs, brought their Drug Free Marshals program to children around the innercity on Tuesday, June 26th, as part of the Church’s international movement to forward the United Nations’ International Day Against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking www.un.org/NewLinks/drugs

Church members gave out Drug Free Marshals badges to children while traveling to different areas of the city in a van that promoted the U.N. anti-drug efforts and the Drug Free Marshal pledge that children take throughout the world www.drugfreemarshals.org/thepledg.htm

"Children had fun with their sheriff badges and the Drug Free Marshals Program does a great job in helping children to make a decision against taking illegal drugs," said Gerard Renna, spokesperson for the Boston Church. "Our Church’s Founder, L. Ron Hubbard, heavily researched the barriers to personal advancement and self-awareness that drugs create and we are very pleased to give back to society by assisting the United Nation’s important anti-drug effort."
