At the Clondalkin Festival, volunteers connected with families and residents through a public drug-awareness initiative supported by the Scientology Community Centre Dublin and the Truth About Drugs campaign.
During the event, volunteers offered free drug-education booklets and spoke with members of the public about the importance of early prevention. The outreach focused on factual information rather than alarm, helping people discuss a difficult subject in a calm and practical way.
Through the Truth About Drugs materials, the volunteers presented prevention as a matter of education and community care, making information available before problems become more serious.
For the Church of Scientology, drug-prevention education is one of several humanitarian initiatives inspired by L. Ron Hubbard and carried out by churches, missions and volunteers in communities across Europe.
Ivan Arjona, representative of the Church of Scientology to the EU, OSCE, Council of Europe and UN, news eurovita 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.
