Talk They Hear You
Substance Use Prevention
Why you should talk with your teens
The consequences of substance use can affect everyone.
Either directly or indirectly, we all feel the effects of the aggressive behavior, property damage, injuries, violence, and deaths that can result from teens experimenting with substances.
This is not simply a problem for some families-It is a community concern.
- Research shows parents and caregivers have a significant influence on whether youth experiment with alcohol and other drugs.
- It is better to talk to youth before they are exposed to alcohol and other drugs.
- 9 out of 10 adults with a substance use disorder initiated their first use before age of 18.
