I am sharing this insightful article that describes not only the addiction crisis in San Francisco but also brings up the need for a meaningful discussion about “drug culture” in the United States. We need to continue to work together to spread important prevention messages so addiction does not begin. The article notes the great success we have had in our comprehensive public health campaign to reduce tobacco (even though there is more work to do on that front). Please go to our website at DrugFreeNJ.org to explore all of our free programs and services that promote prevention in our state.
