Hidden In Plain Sight is an informative drug awareness program designed for parents and guardians.

The program helps parents recognize everyday items that may indicate risky behaviors or potential drug use in their preteens or teenagers. One of the key components is a mock teenage bedroom, where parents and guardians can inspect common objects to discover what might actually be hidden in plain sight.

Many parents and guardians are surprised to learn just how easily certain items can be concealed, and how these seemingly harmless objects may actually serve as tools or containers for drugs or alcohol. HIPS provides valuable insights into how kids may be hiding substances or paraphernalia in their own home, empowering guardians to better recognize potential warning signs.
