The Ontario Substance Abuse Program Advisory Council was given its quarterly update at its meeting Thursday at Ontario High School.

Coordinator Veronica Cain talked about the four prevention groups in the Ontario School District, with the Trader Card Program where high school students work with elementary students, the No Use Incorporated which is a high school drug free group, ADIOS, the middle school drug free group and Warrior Pride, the fourth grade drug free group.

Ontario Schools Resource Officer Adam Gongwer also talked about the Rachel's Challenge Program which will be open to the public at 7 p.m. on March 19.

He says the program honors Rachel Joy Scott who was the first student killed during the horrible tragedy at Columbine High School in Colorado in 1999.

The program is presented by Rachel's father, Darrell, and her brother, Craig.

The Ontario Substance Abuse Program was started in 1989 under the direction of Doug Carr who headed it for 16 years.
