ACT on Drugs started when Lynn Riemer, decided to focus her efforts on educating kids about drugs and leave the field of forensic chemistry behind. Lynn’s years in the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) and the North Metro Drug Task Force gave her first hand experience with the drug world as she analyzed drugs and took down meth labs.
Lynn has been visiting schools, organizations and events in person, spreading her knowledge with the public. ACT on Drugs Presents a Conversation with The Drug Lady is the continuation of her mission. Lynn has produced a series of videos and curriculum that schools can use to educate their students about drugs. If you’d like to learn how to get your school involved please visit our product page for more info.
Lynn believes that giving kids the facts about drugs and letting them make their own decisions is the best way to help them avoid the negative consequences that all drug users face. The banner she raises in the fight against drug use is in some ways a fight against the glamorization of drugs in popular culture today.
