Safe and Sober Prom Night

What is the Safe Sober Prom Night Program?

The Safe Sober Prom Night Program was founded in 1991 by the Lewis & Daggett Law Firm to encourage teens to stay safe and drug and alcohol free during Prom. Over 450 High Schools in North Carolina and South Carolina currently participate in the program. Since its inception more than 400,000 students have signed the Safe Sober pledge. In addition, more than $45,000 has been awarded to schools with the highest percentage of participation.

How does the Safe Sober Prom Night Program work?
The Safe Sober Prom Night Program creates awareness about the dangers of drugs and alcohol – particularly around Prom time. The Program asks students to sign a pledge card agreeing to stay drug and alcohol free on prom night. High Schools across the Carolinas use this program on its own, but many also combine it with other activities including dramatizations of accidents scenes involving drunk drivers. Some schools involve their SADD or drama departments, while others use the prom committee or other enthusiastic students. Click here to check out videos of some Safe Sober Prom Night Events
