Substance Use Prevention
Toolkit

Email-backdrop

Recovery is possible.

It’s likely you know someone affected by a substance use disorder, or have struggled with it yourself. Developing an issue with drugs is not the fault of the user — it’s an unfair fight against the brain and body’s natural chemistry.

October is Substance Use Prevention Month. Use these resources to learn about substance use disorders and help prevent the harm they cause to individuals, families and communities. You can print, distribute or share via social media the materials in this toolkit during the month of October and all year long. Let’s #SupportSobriety.
