color:#1F497D'>I think it was around 1993 that I discovered the asset model out
of SEARCH, and I had been working with youth and developing alternative activities
at my local YMCA. MY inner question was: WHAT WILL WORK? WHAT WILL HELP KIDS
MAKE HEALTHY CHOICES? I could see that having a dynamite speaker at a
high school didn’t work.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>Also, my kids (boy and girl) were in their early teens at the
time. So I kept talking with the teens in my town. The asset model made such
sense as an approach, I became a vocal advocate. It’s been quite a journey
(I’m now 66, down to working 2 days a week in the field of prevention –
my end stage career!); and a grandmother of two children. My son explained to
me one day why he never did drugs and barely drank very much – a little
more in college - coming from a long line of alcoholics on my side of the
family and that he and his sister didn’t really want to embarrass me or
their father. (WHO KNEW?) AND, The YMCA adopted the asset model on a National
level.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'><br>
Assets are still used as the basis for teen and parent programs we do here at the
Center…it continues to be a journey – how to effectively develop
those assets in my grandchildren without anyone knowing I’m doing it!!!<br>
<br>
Keep up all of your great research and sharing of ideas. Because of Search,
there is rarely a teen I don’t look directly in the eye.<br>

sent a single reply but the discussion is motivating me to comment as
well. I spent 8 years as a drug prevention/intervention counselor in a
NYC High School. We put more of the focus on why they used than on
the actual substances. I used to make a list with each class that listed
reasons why youth use drugs and alcohol in one column and then listed positive
alternatives in the second column. The positive alternative list was
always so much longer than the other one and the kids were usually surprised to
see that. On Drugfree Red Ribbon Day, we had a sign that said,
"Instead of just saying no to drugs, say YES to positive
alternatives." We had a big fishbowl with positive alternatives and
the kids would pick one as they stopped by the table. It really got them
talking and thinking.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";
color:navy'>I enjoy the emails from HCHY but rarely jump in. However, as
someone working in mental health, a school trustee and the mother of three (two
teenagers), I feel I must comment. My 15 year old has struggled with the drug
issue and I am very struck by the fact that it really doesn't matter what
substance it is (as already noted) but rather that she and her peers believe
that it's normal and "no big deal" to consume substances to bring
relief/pleasure.</span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";
color:navy'>We live in an age where adults self-medicate all the time and the
use of prescription drugs as a means to improving life is accepted. I would be
interested in giving children and youth an understanding of the power they have
over their feelings and their bodies using the asset model. Perhaps linking
this information to other techniques that help give relief/pleasure such as
yoga, meditation, exercise, support networks, etc.</span><span
style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";
color:navy'>I think that children and youth witness our general ways of coping
as adults and think that drugs in any form are given an endorsement. We can
provide a better alternative.</span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";
color:navy'>I agree whole heartedly with the comment below. There are
numerous books, brochures and references regarding substance abuse and ways
adults can prevent and intervene. I believe that addressing the problem
of substance abuse by using the asset model would be most effective way to
go. It would also help those community members who feel that the asset model
is just another one of those "Warm and Fuzzy" kinds of things, to see
the it as a credible solution to big problems in the community such as
substance abuse.</span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";
color:navy'>I had originally just replied privately to the request, but now
wish to chime in on the list. There are good reasons for including
references to specific drugs. </span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";
color:black'>While parents often worry most about illicit drug use, alcohol is
by far the most popular drug of choice for youth. And it causes a lot of
problems. While tobacco use does not create the kinds of acute problems
(highway fatalities, violence, overdoses) that other substances may cause,
ultimately tobacco use leads to more health problems and deaths than other
forms of drug use, and it seems that if a person does not start smoking prior
to age 18 they are unlikely to begin. So I would advise including these
in the book. </span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";
color:black'>If specific drugs are to be covered then the fastest growing type
of drug abuse among youth- prescription drug abuse deserves mention.</span><span
style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";
color:black'>But in many ways it is not productive to focus on particular kinds
of drugs. True, some measures, such as compliance checks on alcohol
retailers, are better suited to specific drugs. However, the same
underlying risk and protective factors seem to be associated with all drug use
among youth. (tobacco is a little different, in that I have not seen much
research on the association between tobacco use and family or neighborhood
disruption, or school failure. But it may be there.)</span><span
style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";
color:black'>I've always felt that the best substance abuse prevention may well
be efforts that do not even mention drugs. Creating healthy classroom
climates, positive social attachments, etc lead to many healthy outcomes,
including reduced substance use and abuse. </span><span style='color:
black'><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:black'>I envisioned this not as another
tool to help parents cope with recognizing drug use among their own
children. The NCADI clearinghouse, and many other resources exist for
that purpose. I presumed the book would be aimed two audiences. One
would be people like those on this list. That is, people who are trying
to promote healthy youth and healthy communities by creating conditions in
which these things can be achieved. The other would be decision makers
and informed members of the community who might be concerned about substance
abuse, but not be sure what to do about it. For that purpose, for me, the
book would focus on harnessing the principles of asset development to address
the specific problem of drug abuse. It would be a way to convey the
message that asset development is not just something that is "nice to
have" but something which can help communities solve some very real
problems they are concerned about. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p><span style='font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D'>I would suggest emphasizing the
most commonly abused substances-alcohol, tobacco, and marijuana. I would
also include info on the others, especially on huffing. Lots of parents
could use the info and even though the others are less common, you never know
who might be seeking info and whose life it could impact. There
definitely are other resources available for parents related to identifying
drug use in their children, but Search could have its own unique audience and
angle by approaching it from an Assets perspective. I think that could be
very useful for parents who sometimes, out of fear, take actions which are more
punitive than boundary-setting, values- and relationship-based, and
Asset-building!</span><span style='color:black'><o:p></o:p></span></p>

Search Institute Press recently put out a customer survey, and in it we asked
people what kinds of topics they'd like us to publish about. We received a lot
of comments recommending that we publish a practical guide to help teachers,
youth leaders, and caring adults identify and deal with youth and substance
abuse, which we think is a great idea.<br>
<br>
What we'd like to know is: <br>
<br>
<b>If we did a book on youth and substance abuse, what "substances"
do you think we should include?</b><br>
<br>
Alcohol and tobacco?<br>
Alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs?<br>
"Other drugs" by themselves?<br>
<br>
<br>
And are there any drugs in particular you think we should focus on? (Marijuana?
Meth?)<br>
<br>
You can send your answers directly to me at <a

<br>
Thanks so much for your help!<br>
Kate<br>
