Drug Education
The Lopatcong Township Police Department supports the nationally acclaimed
"Drug Abuse Resistance Education" program. Patrolman - Travis Smith is our specially
trained D.A.R.E. officer. He visits our schools and teaches our children how
to say "no" to drugs. Lopatcong students participate in a concentrated D.A.R.E. program designed
to give them the information and skills they will need as they face the
challenges of their teenage years. Self-esteem, respect for the law and
awareness of community support provide the foundation of this program.
