Prevention Education in America's Schools: Findings and Recommendations from a Survey of Educators
In April 2006, Join Together and Communitas Online, with funding from the Gift of the Magi Foundation, conducted a survey of kindergarten through twelfth-grade educators in the U.S.
The survey’s goals were to learn how drug and alcohol education is actually taught, identify barriers teachers face in teaching prevention, and identify the types of training, support, and materials educators need to improve the effectiveness of their alcohol and drug use prevention efforts.
A national advisory committee of experts in education met several times to discuss the survey results and formulate recommendations on how we can move forward to help delay, reduce, and prevent drug and alcohol use among children and adolescents.
The result is the report, Prevention Education in America's Schools: Findings and Recommendations from a Survey of Educators.
