Steps to Take

BEEN THERE, DONE THAT

© 2016 Our Young Addicts. All Rights Reserved.

What You’ve Heard Tonight

• Not every kid uses.• Not every kid develops an addiction.• But, no use is good use - developing brains

cannot and should not handle drugs and alcohol.


• Kids that use are not bad kids.

• It’s not about bad parenting.

All Rights Reserved - Our Young Addicts 2016

What you need to know

“Not my kid”


• It starts HERE, Tonight• Get educated.• Ditch the “not my kid”

mentality.• Have “the talk” OFTEN.• Say NO to drugs and

alcohol for your kids. Zero tolerance.

• Practice prevention but recognize the signs and symptoms of substance use.

• Talk to neighbors, friends, family, teachers, coaches, counselors.

• Share the situation with others – chances are they are familiar and can help.

• Tap this network – the ones on stage.

• Drug test, if you’re unsure.• Take care of yourself and

other family members.• Be prepared for the

journey.
