D.A.R.E. stands for Drug Abuse Resistance Education. D.A.R.E. was founded in 1983 in Los Angeles and has proven so successful that it is now being implemented in 75% of our nation’s school districts and in more than 43 countries around the world. D.A.R.E. is taught by specially trained Police Officers who’s experience is used to teach drug and violence education, make good decisions, and how to resist peer pressure. Pocatello started its own D.A.R.E. program in 1991. It is taught in all of the elementary schools in Chubbuck and Pocatello. D.A.R.E.

Flame Car In 2009, the Pocatello Police Department took on the project to create a bold new D.A.R.E. vehicle. Funding came from local businesses and the Bannock County D.A.R.E. Board. (No tax payer funds were used.) The car was also made as a tribute to long-time D.A.R.E. Officer Dan Gilbert who had recently passed from Lou Gehrig's disease. A friend of Officer Gilbert, Dean Molder, first approached D.A.R.E. Officer Kevin Nielsen about the car, offering his contacts to help make the car's eye-catching design. The car boasted custom airbrush flames featuring eight hidden "ghost" messages that said: "Just Say No," "D.A.R.E.," and "Not Even Once." The car also featured a trunk mount for an LED TV, allowing officers to play videos or give presentations from the back of the car, making it both a show car and a teaching tool. The car was unveiled at the 2010 ISU Chrome in the Dome car show and was then put to work in the Pocatello and Chubbuck elementary schools. In September 2010, the car won a national award from Law and Order Magazine, taking first place in the nation for the best D.A.R.E. graphics. Video The Making of the D.A.R.E.
