Families Impacted by Substance Abuse

Did you know? Youth with alcohol- and/or drug-addicted parents are four times more likely to become addicted if they choose to drink alcohol or use illegal drugs. One in four youth under age 18 lives in a family where a person abuses alcohol or suffers from alcoholism. Dealing with family issues is a key activity to prevent use, abuse, and dependency.

It makes sense that family life style has a huge impact on kids.
This is one reason it is so important to get parents/family involved when the schools educate kids on illegal drug/alcohol use.
