Where can I find more information on drug prevention for youth?
SAMHSA’s National Clearinghouse for Alcohol and Drug Information (NCADI) is a one-stop resource for information about prevention. For publications and materials specific to youth prevention programs, visit the NCADI youth page. NCADI staff members are also available by phone 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at 1-800-729-6686 and can recommend appropriate materials, conduct customized searches, and make referrals to appropriate organizations. The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) has produced an InfoFact sheet called “Lessons from Prevention Research” that provides 16 principles that parents, educators and community leaders can use to implement drug prevention programs at the community level. Anti-Drug.com was created as part of the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy’s (ONDCP) National Youth Anti-Drug Media Campaign to provide an extensive drug prevention information center and a supportive community for parents and caregivers to interact and learn.
