Educational Program
Do you know a Rockwood Student who has substance abuse issues? Contact Michelle Oertwig at oertwigmichelle@rsdmo.org or 636-733-2136 or Linda Mullins at mullinslinda@rsdmo.org or 636-733-2094. The Educational Program utilizes Safety First, a harm-reduction based, drug-intervention curriculum. Theory and evidence-based information is provided to empower students to quit using substances and/or reduce harm.
The School Substance Abuse Supervisor will meet individually with students at their school. Outside referrals can be made if deemed necessary (i.e. substance abuse treatment, mental health services, etc). Additionally, resources can be provided for students who may be struggling with family members that have substance use issues.
