HI FRIENDS W Do you w a n t to be tre a te d PHONE TH « 2 8 4 B B S 4 (A R T a o a in BZCSZmOBBD F R IE N D L Y IN N * a o a im Teen group deals with drugs TeeDruNar-R was formed in late August of 1968. The pro gram first started out as a place for kids to come and talk about their problems. TeeDruNar-R later formed in to a structured form of rehabi litation. Kids could work out their problems, following set rules, made by the group(u ri der adult supervision). TeeDruNar-R started with just one boy and has grown in both number and effectiveness There a rs presently TeeDru Nar-R centers in the Univer sity D istrict of Seattle, Bothell Washington, and Glendale, Ca lifom ia. In these three loca tions we are presently working with close to 150 kids each week. TeeDruNar-R is expanding in concept and in impact. Cen ters are being planned, based on need and adult involvement, in the cities of Olympia, Park land, (Tacomaarea),Spokane, Everett, Lynnwood-Montla ke T errace, Chehalis-Centralia, along with expansion in the Los Angeles-Southern California a re a . Interest has been shown in the Midwestern states as well. TeeDruNar-Rs basic rehabi litation philosophy is to de velop In each human being: a. A capacity to face the re- lity of his life without depen dence upon demagingdrugs or narcotics. b. The ability to view his po tential as a person, andth e will to work toward self-fulfill ment within the structured de mands of our society. c. The capacity to resolve his problems through his own re sources. TeeDruNar-Rs effectiveness works only for those who want an alternative, and those who want to help with their specific drug problems. Within a struc tured rehabilitation program young people find a ground to walk on and a new life to look forward to. TeeDruNar-R is an alternative to the drug cul ture and actually is helping to create a new culture of young people. □Cui A N EW LO W CREDIT the Greek goddess of dance, Terpsichore, a t 7:30p a n , Sun day, May9, lnthe Old Main Auditorium. ‘'Offerings to Terpsichore 1971” will open with tlie Portland Dance Theater’s "Dance of Welcome, ” which was inspired by Percial Borde, the Afro - Caribbean dancer who visited Portland in January.
