Notes
Irene went to Nabikenge to teach about Alcohol and drug abuse basically to introduce the lesson to the members, she started with a review to some of the lessons covered then later asked the community members the meaning of different words like alcoholism,alcoholic and drugs as referred to in their local language. Irene later asked the members some of the reasons to why people drink,or take drugs, Isabirye and the other members mentioned several reasons from pride, addiction,boredom, and many more as the group discussed. Irene asked the members to continue with that lesson the next time they will meet because there was a village meeting to take place shortly after their lesson.so the members had to prepare for it she thanked them for their time and encouraged them to mobilize more members to come for the lesson.
