- Description

- Series Description
- "'The Turned On Crisis' was a three-pronged attack on drug abuse produced by Pittsburgh's public television station, WQED and broadcast over the Public Broadcasting Service. Three series of programs are included. The first was designed to alert the public to the dangers of drug abuse, methods of rehabilitation, and prevention. The second series, 'Because We Care,' was a positive approach to the drug problem designed for the educational community. The final series, an in-school series titled 'nobody but yourself' was aimed at junior high school students. The programs take a behavior approach to drug education and [suggest] alternatives to drug abuse along with their relationship to the individual's values and goals. An important facet of this drug project [was] the utilization of materials supplied to stations and individuals for each of the three television series."--1971 Peabody Awards entry form.
