While substance use among youth remains a significant concern, it is also important to celebrate the "upside" that a majority of adolescents are making smart choices by deciding not to use drugs.
InnerAct Alliance is happy to share Real Truths from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) which tell us that many of today's young adults are saying YES to healthy choices. Statistics from the most recent National Survey on Drug Use and Health show that 46% of young adults age 18-25 have never used illicit drugs, including marijuana.
Positive Choices Matter! Today and every day, we salute youth who enjoy healthy ways to have fun, connect, and thrive without the influence of illicit drugs of any kind.
