What actually works when it comes to prevention

 

Preventing Problems with Substance Use and Addiction Parents are the biggest influence in a teen’s life. A strong bond with your child, especially during the teen years, helps reduce the chances of them engaging in unhealthy behavior and helps set the stage for preventing nicotine, alcohol and drug use. Staying up-to-date on their life and interests, and having real, open conversations is a proven way to help prevent problems further down the road. Hear from teens themselves about what teens think about drugs, alcohol and nicotine, get more tips for how to talk to your child about substance use, and learn how to dispose of prescription medication safely.
