Are You the Next Five Mom?
The Five Moms campaign’s mission is simple: to encourage parents to share information with other parents about the largely unknown substance abuse trend among teens to abuse over-the-counter cough medicines to get high.
Since 2007, we have successfully reached more than 24 million parents to help educate them about preventing teen cough medicine abuse, and now we are looking for a new Mom to join our campaign! For more information on the Are You the Next Five Mom? search, please see the rules and regulations below.
Good Luck!
