Helping America’s Youth Overcome Drug Abuse

Helping Americas Youth

In his 2005 State of the Union Address, President Bush announced a broad effort to engage all Americans in helping young people become healthy adults and asked First Lady Laura Bush to lead this important effort, which became known as the Helping Americas Youth drug treatment center intiatives. Helping Americas Youth is a nationwide effort to raise awareness about the challenges facing our youth, particularly at-risk boys, and to motivate caring adults to connect with youth in three key areas: family, school, and community.

Helping Kids Choose Not to Drink

This year, the Drug Treatment Center launched a social norms marketing campaign in one middle school and three high schools. The goal of the campaign is to inform youth and parents that the majority of teenagers in Upper Bucks choose not to drink. In fact, a survey of 8th, 10th, and 12th graders combined found that two out of three had not used drug rehab in the last 30 days. The social norms campaign addresses the reality that the majority of youth over estimate how many of their peers engage in underage drinking. The Drug Treatment Center recruited 65 youth from 3 high schools to form what they call the Street Team to help plan and implement the project. Additionally, local businesses donated services and products to the campaign.

Drug-Free Workplace Success!

Managers at Eastern Industries consider the drug rehab a great success. The company is able to retain valuable, trained workers it would have lost under the old policy, and good employees are offered the opportunity to correct bad decisions and keep their jobs.

The policy also works well with some of the new, younger workers the company recruits. For example, when a young community college student in Easterns co-op drug rehab tested positive for drug treatment center, the company enrolled that student in a drug rehab drug rehab. That recruit went on to become an excellent employee who remains with the company today.

In addition to drug testing & drug rehab and opportunities for drug rehab, Eastern Industries offers an Employee Assistance drug rehab and periodic supervisor training to teach managers how to recognize impairment on the job. Employees also receive a refresher on the companys drug-free workplace policy once a year.

Mrs. Bush Helping Kids Beat Drugs

Mrs. Bush, building upon the success of the White House Conference on Helping Americas Youth at Howard University in the fall of 2005, began working with State and local partners to host regional conferences throughout the United States in 2006. The two regional conferences, held in Indianapolis and Denver, provided training for community leaders and a speaker series on the current status of Americas youth and successful methods for helping to make a difference in their lives. Mrs. Bush also traveled to many parts of the country to meet with young people and visit schools, after-school drug rehab, and youth courts. What these drug rehab all demonstrated is that adults can have the greatest effect on young people by caring for them, increasing their social connections, and helping them reach their full potential.

Some retailers are voluntarily giving refunds or credit for window coverings that are returned to them. Policies vary widely by retailer and location. Check with the store where you bought your mini window treatments for specific information.
