15 Percent of Women Raped While Incapacitated by Alcohol or Drugs in Freshman Year - Partnership for Drug-Free Kids

	New Campaign Asks Teens, “Who Controls You?”  Last week, we unveiled a new multimedia campaign, which asks teens “Who Controls You?” The new spots illustrate some of the pressures they face, including peer pressure to drink and use drugs, issues with body image and bullying, among others. The new work was created pro-bono by advertising agency, Hill Holliday, production company Adolescent and award-winning, social media influencer, Maris Jones, as part of the Partnership’s Above the Influence teen program. Watch the full campaign >   Meth Awareness Week Kicks Off November 30 Meth Awareness Week will be observed Monday, November 30 through Friday, December 4, in an effort to combat the abuse and use of methamphetamine.
