Binge Drinking:  Binge drinking is a significant contributor to a number of preventable alcohol-related deaths in the US annually. While it may not seem as serious, or even recognizable, as more conventional forms of alcoholism, binge drinking is associated with many alcohol-related health risks. The rise of binge drinking — and related hazards — has prompted public health officials, those looking to study healthcare administration, educators, and drug and alcohol advocacy organizations to take a closer look to gain insight into preventing this form of alcohol abuse.    More information available here:  https://online.maryville.edu/blog/how-healthcare-administrators-are-tackling-the-binge-drinking-epidemic

Vaping has gained exponential popularity over the past decade. However, vaping is not safe — in fact, it can cause severe physical injuries and long-term health consequences. Vaping may lead to death, lung injuries, seizures, strokes, battery explosions, and more.
If you regularly use e-cigarettes or vape pens, you may be at risk. Click here to learn more:    https://www.vapedanger.com/

Addiction Resources for Parents:  Adolescents who use drugs might not become addicted in adulthood, but they can damage their health mentally, physically and emotionally during their childhoods. For a few who are particularly vulnerable, drug use can and does become an ongoing risk of addiction into their futures. There is an important distinction between illicit use and addiction. Illicit use of drugs refers to using drugs for pleasure or highs. Addiction to drugs refers to a dependence upon those substances; people who are addicted have no control over whether, when, how or how much of the drugs they crave. Addiction can be psychological, physical or both.  Learn more about how to help adolescents prevent and recover from addiction here.  https://www.greenmountaintreatmentcenter.com/resources/parents/
