[QUOTE="Littleboylost, post: 722745, member: 21895"] [URL="https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2017/01/teens-drugs-iceland/513668/"]How Iceland Got Teens to Say No to Drugs[/URL] Interesting that we in Canada have reduced after school resources and programs. Drug use has increase. We had extracurricular programs for our son. When he experienced adolescent depression at 14 drugs were readily available and he for caught up in the drug culture. This article indicates that Drug awareness campaigns don't work and programs that provide skill sets and better coping mechanisms work. Perhaps we should be saying "Just say no to anti drug campaigns." And yes to teen community engagement programs. What have we got wrong here in North America? [/QUOTE]
