National Drug & Alcohol Facts Week®

Connecting students with science-based facts about drugs and alcohol. That is the goal for National Drug & Alcohol Facts Week® to be held January 22-27, 2019.

Did you know? A 2017 survey found 14% of students reported the use of non-prescription opioids. Another 2017 survey of teens revealed that daily marijuana use has become more popular than daily cigarette smoking.
