Sue Scheff: Teen Drug and Alcohol Abuse
Almost on a daily basis I receive emails from caring parents, educators, and others that work with today’s teens and children asking me to share their information. At my organization, Parents’ Universal Resource Experts, it is about parents helping parents and with this, I will continue to share great websites, articles, parenting tips and more.
Today, a representative from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, (SAMSHA) contacted me to share some vital information on teen substance abuse.
