A Life Interrupted

About the Presentation

"A Life Interrupted" is an interactive program that incorporates photographs, audio 911 calls and dispatch tapes into the presentation in order to demonstrate the reality of such tragedies. During the course of the presentation, fatal accidents are presented to the youths with details regarding how each collision occurred, how it could have been avoided and what decisions were made by the driver and passengers prior to the collision. Each presentation includes at least one parent whose child was killed as a result of a traffic collision.

The presentation is followed by a question and answer session. The program may also include the transportation of a vehicle from a local collision, which resulted in the death of one teenager, to high schools and community based organizations. The severely damaged vehicle is a strong reminder demonstrating the hazards of alcohol and driving.
