Senate Concurrent Resolution No. by Senator Mizell designates Seymore D'Fair as Louisiana's Drug-Free Ambassador. Seymore, originally the mascot for the 1984 Louisiana World Exposition, has evolved into a cultural icon representing joy and community spirit in the state. His transition from a state emblem to a global figure has allowed him to engage in social advocacy, particularly in drug awareness and prevention through the Seymore D'Fair Foundation. The foundation has implemented various programs aimed at educating pre-adolescent students about the dangers of drug use, including the "Just Say NO!" initiative and the "Kiki's Red Ribbon School Celebration," which foster interactive learning experiences.

The resolution highlights the urgent need for effective drug prevention strategies in Louisiana, where a significant portion of the population has reported needing treatment for drug addiction without receiving it. Seymore's engaging persona and innovative approach to education make him an exemplary ambassador for promoting drug-free living. By designating him as the Drug-Free Ambassador, the resolution aims to leverage his influence to foster positive changes in attitudes towards drug use, reduce abuse rates, and create a healthier environment for the youth and the community at large.
