The
Triple Team Partnership is a public service campaign focused on
the San Francisco Bay Area. Based on the National Talking with
Kids about Tough Issues campaign, the goal of the campaign is
to encourage Bay Area parents to talk early and often with their
kids about some of life's most challenging issues: sex, violence,
drugs and alcohol and HIV/AIDS.
To
help us get this message out, we've enlisted the help of three
of the region's biggest sports heroes, Rich Gannon of the
Oakland Raiders, Antawn Jamison of the Golden
State Warriors and Gil Heredia of the Oakland A's.
Throughout 2001, you will see each of our celebrity athletes teaming
up to spread the Talk message, starting with the free Triple Team
Calendar.

Each
month (on
our home page)
we will feature a special "Triple Team" event hosted
by one of our sponsors.
(For
Bay Area Residents Only)
This
may be the most valuable calendar you will ever own. In addition
to photos of our celebrity athletes in action, each month has
tips to make talking with kids about tough issues easier. Use
this calendar as a reminder!
The
best way to make sure your kids make healthy decisions later in
life is to talk with them early and often about difficult subjects.
Use our "tip of the month" as a starting point for these
talks. We hope everyone in your family will enjoy this calendar.
Hang it in a location where everyone can see it (for example,
in the kitchen or family room).
The
calendar is also full of information about the upcoming school
year and events relating to Talking with Kids. Use it during the
school year to identify school holidays and vacations. Add your
own notes for days that are important to your family. Whether
you mark it with birthdays and anniversaries, or mark days to
talk with your kids, we hope you will find this to be a useful
tool.
Order
your calendar at 1-800-CHILD44 (while supplies last)
