Drug Abuse Prevention

Drug abuse prevention involves strategies and education aimed at helping individuals avoid starting or progressing with harmful drug use. It includes teaching people about the risks, building life skills like decision-making and stress management, fostering supportive environments, and providing access to help for those at risk. The goal is to reduce the likelihood of substance misuse by promoting healthy choices, increasing awareness, and offering resources to handle challenges without resorting to drugs. This proactive approach helps individuals lead healthier lives and reduces the social and health impacts of drug abuse.
