Many people who struggle with substance use disorders started using at an early age. Access to substances is a significant predictor of early use.
Among Anuvia’s drug and alcohol prevention strategies is a focus on substance use disorder prevention for families, encouraging the reduction of access to substances in the home, retail outlets, and schools. We work actively with schools and retail outlets to address access.
We have also launched a Safe Homes Campaign to distribute information about access to tobacco, alcohol, and prescription drugs at home. Please join us on Facebook and help us spread these important messages throughout our community.
While many are at home right now, it may be a great opportunity to start conversations with your family about underage and illegal substance use. We will be sharing tips on Facebook to help.
