When we started this Web site, we knew that there were recovery
resources, programs and various initiatives out there geared towards
youth and substance use. Finding the information proved to be
challenging as the information was so scattered and hard to find.
We never knew where to start looking for it! There is the local
information; the government programs; the national organizations
- How many of these offered their services to youth? We figured
that if we were having problems finding a resource close to home,
we were probably not the only ones! So, we decided to create the
YouthOnDrugs.com Web site.
Dealing with drug reality
We all have different ideas on the subject ... and different
ways of dealing with it. The fact is using drugs affects your
health, your spirit, your potential. Most drugs are illegal, harmful
when used/abused and even deadly. Knowing this, we want to create
a place where youth can find reliable and accurate drug information.
We think that if children and young adults choose to do drugs,
they need to be aware of the facts surrounding their use. We feel
that once you dabble in drugs, an educated and informed choice
is better than one based in rumor and half-truths.
Addiction doesn't ask for an I.D. card before it sets in. Age
doesn't matter. If you are seeking
help with an addiction, we want to give you the tools and resources
to find help now!
A place to share your thoughts. A
place to learn you are not alone.
Let this be a place where youth can share
with others what they are going through. Being up or being down,
the struggles and questions of one person may become the inspiration
of another.
We welcome parents, teachers, social workers,
volunteers, recovered addicts, and all people who care about youth,
who want to share their expertise or learn about addiction. To
everyone we want to say: join us in our mission in maintaining
the most effective, comprehensive and up-to-date Web site for
substance use resources and drug information geared towards youth.
