Youth Speakers On Substance AbuSe & Drug Prevention: Expert Solutions For High Schools, Colleges & Universities
Recognizing the Challenge
In today’s fast-paced society, there is a growing epidemic of substance abuse and drug addiction among teens. Navigating the waters of adolescence is difficult enough without the added pressure of exposure to drugs and alcohol. The statistics are alarming: according to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, by the 12th grade, about half of adolescents have abused an illicit drug at least once. The situation is exacerbated by the fact that the teenage brain is still developing, making it more susceptible to the addictive qualities of drugs and alcohol. Substance abuse can lead to academic failure, a higher probability of engaging in criminal activities, health deterioration or even death. The need for comprehensive and effective alcohol and drug prevention strategies is not just beneficial but imperative.
