SAMHSA is gearing all of its resources -- programs, policies and grants -- toward that outcome.
This site summarizes the findings from well-designed randomized controlled trials that, in our view, have particularly important policy implications.
Parents, you have the power to influence your children to make good choices—sensible, healthy choices—throughout their teen years.
