New Report on Regional Teen Prescription Drug Use
This report focuses on how regional adolescents perceive and consume prescription drugs. Specifically, it examines the attitudes of regional adolescents in using/misusing/abusing these drugs and the regional teen consumption rates of these drugs. If we can understand how adolescents in Region 1 perceive and misuse/abuse these drugs, we all can bolster the protective factors and reduce the risk factors in their daily lives.

How Do We Serve Our Communities?
 |
We serve our communities by providing alcohol, tobacco, and other drug (ATOD) data for schools, Colleges and Universities, or other community events that your agency may be hosting. This done through Information Dissemination which provides awareness and knowledge of Alcohol, Tobacco, Other drugs abuse, and issues and trends through the data collected by the central data repository.
Our Community-Based Process aids the community to more effectively provide "TIPS" (Treatment, Intervention and Prevention Services) for ATOD problems through community mobilization, collaboration, coalition building, networking and community empowerment efforts. Through Environmental and Social Policy, we aim to influence the incidence and prevalence of ATOD in the general population by establishing and/or changing written and unwritten standards, codes and attitudes within the community. This strategy also aims to combat substance abuse and related harms with concerted, community-based and comprehensive efforts change norms, behaviors, systems and comtexts that contribute to substance abuse problems in our communities (CADCA). |
