Dear Prevention Partner:
October is National Substance Abuse Prevention
Month<http://lists.icfwebservices.com/t/81773/320752/5802/2/>. Please
join with the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy and the
Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) during
this month to make parents, caregivers, and young people more aware of the
consequences of underage drinking. More than 9 million 12- to 20-year-olds
use alcohol, risking serious threats to their healthy development, academic
performance, and future.
The SAMHSA brochure *Underage Drinking: Myths vs.
Facts*<http://lists.icfwebservices.com/t/81773/320752/5803/4/>is free
and can be ordered in bulk quantities from the SAMHSA
Store <http://lists.icfwebservices.com/t/81773/320752/2536/7/>. This
brochure corrects misconceptions about the prevalence and effects of
underage alcohol use and can be a discussion starter between teens or
preteens and their parents. Its small size—2.8 inches by 11 inches—makes
it easy to display or use as a handout at events. SAMHSA’s “Talk. They
Hear You. <http://lists.icfwebservices.com/t/81773/320752/1685/13/>”
Campaign offers additional information for parents of 9- to 15-year-olds.
With your help we can reduce underage drinking and its consequences for the
good of individuals, families, and communities.
Thanks,
*Tracy Farmer*
