Teen substance abuse

Overview

Choose one substance that teens commonly misuse. Develop a strategy or intervention to discourage the use of this substance in teens. In your discussion post, include:

  • Where/how is this substance obtained? Is it made from household items? Bought from an outside source?
  • Any recommendations for education modalities or recommended strategies for reaching teens to discourage the use of this substance?
  • How is the teen's physical and mental health impacted by using this substance?
  • Are there long-term consequences to using this substance?
  • What is the risk of addiction and death associated with this substance?

Use at least one research article to support your educational intervention/strategy.
