National Drug & Alcohol Facts Week

This week is a perfect opportunity to have a conversation with kids to keep them alcohol free. Ask, Listen, Learn’s free resources are ideal for starting and continuing conversations about alcohol and the negative effects of underage drinking and cannabis on their developing brains. For bigger kids, Mind Matters Mind Matters invites young teens to take a scientific journey to learn about the brain’s complex responses to specific drugs, including cocaine, inhalants, K2/Spice and Bath Salts, marijuana, methamphetamine, nicotine, opioids, and prescription stimulants. These conversations make a big difference in helping kids form healthy habits and coping mechanisms, and they help build lines of communication for even more conversations to come!
