Abstract:
The chapter “Addressing Adolescent Drug Abuse,” in School Mental Health Services for Adolescents, examines several topics related to adolescent substance use: brain development and its implications for mental health services, evidence-based prevention and intervention programs, and the utility of clinical services adapted for school settings. Substance use by adolescents continues to be a public health concern. Not only does recent research show relatively high rates of use, but the onset of substance use during the teenage years has been linked to subsequent substance use disorders and is associated with a wide range of social, learning, and psychological consequences. The need is great for schools to address this public health issue by utilizing the growing number of existing evidence-based prevention and intervention programs.
