Natural High® DVD Series
The Foundation's primary outreach vehicle is an educational DVD series called Natural High. The goal for these drug prevention DVDs is to send one to every middle school in the nation, free of charge. This means sending a DVD to 90,000 schools with the potential to reach millions of children at every public, private, and alternative school with a 5th grade.

 Within the cosmic collection of feedback gathered from Natural High 2, students and teachers across the country requested music as the theme for the next Natural High DVD. So the Foundation decided to do just that! Natural High 3 celebrates singing, song writing, musical instruments and performance as a natural high. It features several of Billboard's top artists - Mya, P.O.D. and Switchfoot, as well as Darrin Henson, choreographer to Prince, Britney Spears and Michael Jackson. Natural High 3 is loaded with heartfelt quotes, inspiring behind the scene stories, and real applicable messages. New on Natural High 3 are Spanish subtitles and an updated comprehensive Discussion Guide with corresponding video clips.

 Natural High 2 , is unlike any video you've ever seen! It's riveting and powerful, yet hip and positive.

Parents, teachers, and social workers applaud the inspiring, hard-hitting messages. Kids "ooh" and "aah" as they watch their heroes and heroines talk tough about drugs. Click here to read some of these testimonials.
Our interactive Natural High 2 DVD offers innovative learning tools to help parents and teachers talk with kids about drugs. One of these tools is our Natural High 2 discussion guide Going Deeper; it helps parents and teachers "break the ice" and lead thoughtful discussions about substance abuse. In fact, English teachers can use the video and discussion guide as part of a literacy program, since we designed it to encourage students to talk and write about their own "natural high" experiences and how they can use those positive experiences to achieve dreams and overcome destructive temptations.
The DVD also has informative handouts such as "6 Steps to Keep your Child Drug-Free," and "How to Talk with Your Children about Drugs - Grades 10-12." Students will discover handouts such as "How do I Know if My Friends are Using Drugs?" and "Commonly Asked Questions about Drugs."
 Produced in 1998, then reformatted in 2000, Natural High 1 was the Foundation's first substance abuse video. It was distributed to 5,000 schools and seen by over 1.2 million students.
Hosted by surfer and former MTV sports celebrity, Peter King, Natural High 1 is a compelling 20-minute video with a strong message and stunning sports footage. The video features world-famous surfers, skateboarders, and models such as Tony Hawk, Christiana Janssen, Kelly Slater, Malia Jones, Ray Barbee, Willy Santos, Felix Arguelles, Taylor Knox, and Tim Curran. Natural High 1 shows a new wave of American role models who inspire students to do well in school, make smart decisions and avoid destructive behavior.
