4 Outline 1. Who gets into trouble with drugs and alcohol, and why does it matter? 2. Can we prevent the problems? 3. How do we help schools and parents access evidence-based resources?
5 Alcohol and drugs in Australia 80% of Australians (aged 14 & over) drink alcohol More than 1 in 3 (38%) consumed alcohol at a level that put themselves at risk of harm or injury, (26% did this monthly) 35% have tried cannabis 11% have tried ecstasy 1.2% had used synthetic cannabis 0.4% other emerging psychoactive substances
6
7 Recent Trends: Illicit Drugs Rates of illicit drug use are fairly stable month use of any illicit substance by Australians yrs < 20% Source: National Drug Strategy Household Survey
8 Recent Trends: Alcohol Young people are delaying onset of drinking 16 Age of drinking initiation among Australians aged yrs yrs yrs However, rates of very high risk binge drinking (11+ drinks) among year olds have not shifted from 2010 to 2013 Source: National Drug Strategy Household Survey
9 Risk Factors for Teenage drinking Many! Recent study by Mattick et al (2014) examined a range of individual, family and peer factors on teenage drinking The most important risk factors when all were considered were: Peer use of alcohol The perception of alcohol use as normative ( everyone is doing it ) Behavioural problems Parental supply of alcohol Mattick, Wadolowski, Aiken, Najman, Kypri, Slade, Hutchinson, Bruno & McBride, 2014
10 Outline 1. Who gets into trouble with drugs and alcohol, and why does it matter? 2. Can we prevent the problems? 3. How do we help schools and parents access evidence-based resources?
11 Types of prevention 1. Universal: delivered to an entire population regardless of level of risk 2. Selective: targeted to groups at greatest risk of developing problems 3. Indicated: targeted to those experiencing early symptoms of a disorder
12 Prevention needs to occur early School is the ideal location Practical - spend > 25% waking lives Time when first start to experiment Tailor messages at developmental levels Educate prior to harmful exposure
13 Effective principles of school-based drug prevention Evidence-based and theory driven Developmentally appropriate & immediately relevant to students Implemented prior to harmful patterns of use Be part of a comprehensive health education curriculum Use peer leadership but keep teacher as the central role Employ interactive teaching approaches Adopt a social influence or comprehensive approach (Newton et al., 2013, Botvin & Griffin, 2007, Midford et al., 2001; 2002, Tobler et al., 1999; 2000, Foxcroft, & Tsertsvadze, 2011, Faggiano et al., 2008, Dusenbury, L., & Falco, 1995)
14 Universal school-based drug prevention Evidence-based programs do exist: Life Skills Training program (Botvin et al) School Health and Alcohol Harm Reduction Project (SHAHRP) (Midford & McBride) EU-DAP Study Unplugged program (Faggiano et al) Get Ready program (DEVS Study) (Cahill & Midford) Dissemination of evidence-based programs is low 14% schools use programs with correct content and delivery Due to barriers & obstacles that arise when implementing programs in the school environment
15
16 Innovative new prevention model Clearly a new approach was needed that was: 1. Evidence-based: adheres to effective principles of drug prevention 2. Overcame barriers to implementation to increase fidelity & outcomes
17 Climate Schools programs Universal prevention programs which aim to prevent substance use and related harms in adolescents Social influence approach Harm-minimisation goal Internet-based Easy to implement Embedded in curriculum Age and context appropriate Interactive cartoons & activities Reinforcement - booster
18 Climate Schools programs Four modules for Australian high school students 1. Alcohol module (Yr 8: 13-14yr olds) 2. Alcohol & Cannabis module (Yr 8/9: 13-15yr olds) 3. Cannabis & Psychostimulant module (Yr 9/10: 14-16yr olds) 4. Ecstasy and New Psychoactive Substances (Yr 10)
19 Climate Schools components Extensive development process Focus groups & interviews teachers, students and health prof. Developed by the user group for the user group Module = 6 lessons of Part 1: 15 min online Part 2: 25 min class activities Assertion skills Calling for assistance Recovery position Decision making Group discussions Covering Alcohol guidelines and laws Normative use Short & long term risks Influences of media & peers Drug refusal & harm minimisation skills Staying safe & first aid

44 Outline 1. Who gets into trouble with drugs and alcohol, and why does it matter? 2. Can we prevent the problems? 3. How do we help schools and parents access evidence-based resources?
45 Positive Choices: Improving dissemination Funded by the Australian Government Department of Health Dissemination project to improve access to evidence-based drug prevention resources for schools across Australia Two phases: 1. Distribution of a resource package to every secondary school 2. Development of an online portal
46 1. Positive Choices Drug Prevention Resource Package 186,000 resource packages delivered to 3,072 secondary schools across Australia Wide interest, with requests for 4,172 additional booklets from Primary & High Schools Drug and Alcohol support services Indigenous health services Medical Centres Youth-oriented organisations & Youth Centres Government departments Victoria Police Rehabilitation Centres Community events Booklets available for free download from: positivechoices.org.au To request hard copies, with postal address.
47 1. Positive Choices Illegal Drugs Resource Package Pure Rush: Online Game How do we make drug education interesting, interactive and engaging? How do we provide factual information about drug harms in a context that is relevant for young people? Educational games are a promising alternative to traditional drug education s/pure-rush-online-drugeducation-game
48 Pure Rush Online drug education game Factual info about drugs effects Interactive learning: colliding with drugs results in impaired performance effects Avoid drugs to succeed in game
49 2. Positive Choices: Online Portal Central access point for school-based drug prevention A focus on resources and prevention programs that are engaging, interactive, evidence-based Developed in consultation with teachers, parents, students Helps users find resources according to their specific needs, lesson planning Ongoing engagement, discussion, resource sharing through subscriber newsletters, twitter & facebook
50 Launch of Positive Choices portal: 6 th Dec Broad interest already with 9,942 users nationally and internationally
51 Summing up Earlier initiation of drug and alcohol use is associated with long-term negative outcomes Prevention needs to occur early School-based prevention approaches have proven effective in reducing alcohol/drug use and related harms, e.g. Climate Schools Broad dissemination of evidence-based approaches is critical
