Substance
Abuse Influences
The overview of the lesson tells us that there is no other area
in the schools today that commands more public attention than
that of substance use and abuse. This particular activity shows
that substance abuse education is more effective if it focuses
on processes of decision making rather than problems.
Look at the quiz
from Family Education for parents to determine if their teen is
on drugs.
