Communities That Care: Action for Drug Abuse Prevention Social and Behavioral Science Series
(Substance abuse has many costs - not just for individuals...)
Substance abuse has many costs - not just for individuals or families, but for communities as well. Communities That Care shows educators, parents, and other concerned adults how they can work together to create a comprehensive, community wide prevention program that effectively confronts the serious drug and alcohol problems threatening our youth. Drawing on other community wide prevention efforts in the United States and Europe, the authors show how to employ community mobilization, educational strategies, voluntarism, and mass media to achieve significant reductions in adolescent drug use. Their approach emphasizes the importance of building up protective factors - positive bonds to family, school, and community - while reducing risk factors such as peer pressure and favorable attitudes towards drugs. The authors show all phases of program development - from assessment and planning to getting key community leaders involved, developing a board, and establishing, institutionalizing, and evaluating the prevention effort - can be adapted to satisfy local community needs.
