The Choosing Healthy Activities & Promoting Safety (CHAMPS) Program is a (20) week program to help our youth resist pressures which may influence them to experiment with alcohol, tobacco, marijuana, inhalants, and other drugs. They will also learn about ways to avoid bullying, peer pressure, violent behavior and making good choices.Several safety topics such as Hunting, ATV, and Boating Safety are also included. This program was started by the Georgia Sheriff's Association and is taught to the 5th grade students by a Deputy Sheriff from your Sheriff's Office.
