Prevention is Preparing. Parents need to be educated about drug use and abuse. If your child faced the threat of cancer, you would waste no time in getting all the information you could about the deadly disease, and how best to help your child. He is far more likely to abuse drugs than to contract cancer. So learn about it.
Help is all around.
The school guidance counselor, the library and local anti-drug coalitions, to name a few, can point you to resources. Read, ask questions, research. Prevention is Partnering. Strengthen your prevention efforts by joining with others. Let your child see how serious you are about prevention.
