- How to recognize substance use in a young person
- How to respond to youth substance use

“Drugs: True Stories helps young people and parents understand the dangers associated with the misuse of drugs. The stories illuminate issues that are essential for everyone to understand: there are real risks and hazards associated with using drugs; these drugs can adversely affect the brain; and that it is possible to prevent drug misuse.”
