2 Introduction Nevada s Substance Abuse Prevention System Youth Risk Behavioral Survey (YRBS) School Districts and Coalitions working together Recommendations D-2
3 Statewide Trends Overall downturn in alcohol and drug trends from General decrease or flat trends in many alcohol usage categories However, general increase in reported and drug use by youth in 2009 across the nation, in Nevada, and in most Nevada counties Historically, there are spikes in reported drug use by students in the transition from 6 th to 7 th grade and from 8 th to 9 th grade Clark County s drug trends seem lower than the rest of the state and Washoe County s seem higher D-3
4 Statewide Trends Marijuana should be one of our greatest concerns (social acceptability and smokers corners becoming pot smokers corners ) Despite the downturn, alcohol is still big (Alcopops, 4 Loko, Extreme Drinking games such as Pong, and more) Proliferation and availability of prescription painkillers (That path can lead to heroin) D-4
5 Substance Abuse Connects to violence and crime, gangs, theft, rape, depression, suicide, teen pregnancy, STD s, poor health, and drop out. D-5
6 Marijuana D-6
7 Marijuana The single most mentioned drug in treatment admissions for youth At least one district s students report that marijuana use is big on campus and during school D-7
8 Admissions D-8
9 Over-the-Counter and Opiate Drugs YRBS does not yet ask students about heroin or prescription drugs. However, OTC drug abuse has increased, which may be an indicator of increased prescription abuse. Anecdotally, treatment providers are reporting more heroin and opiate prescription drug abuse among youth. D-9
10 Other Trends Spice, Ivory Wave, Coricidin Binge drinking is still an issue Drinking and driving: 34% rode in car with someone who had been drinking Reemergence of inhalant abuse Experimentation with routes of administration D-10
11 Suspensions/Expulsions D-11
12 Contributing Factors to Substance Abuse Problems in the Schools Perceived risk for a particular drug Social and community norms Club Drugs Availability Gateway drugs Parental approval Media Epidemic Formation Generational Forgetting D-12
13 What is Being Done in the School Districts? NIAA policy (alcohol, tobacco, and drugs) Drug testing in Washoe, Carson City, and Douglas Boys and Girls Club has a site at every elementary school in Lyon County Leadership Club in Carson City has developed an opiate prevention project Churchill has methamphetamine awareness in all 6 th grade and junior high classes Douglas 9 th grade health classes have substance abuse curriculum Extensive collaboration between Coalitions and School Districts in every county of the state D-13
14 Focus on Education in WCSD D-14
15 Case Study: Washoe County School District Community collaboration projects for training, parent support groups, student intervention programs, youth education, resources and materials Youth developed materials and planning students against destructive decisions groups, peer mentoring and service learning projects Coaches, teachers not just health teachers, counselors, nurses, law enforcement, bus drivers, student wellness while keeping focus on graduation D-15
16 What Needs to Be Done School Boards need updated information, and there needs to be serious dialogue, planning, and collaboration within the community Passive consent on YRBS versus active consent Continue collaborations between coalitions and school districts Support parent groups and increase their capacity to make a difference Discipline alternatives such as intervention programs Focused education Youth directed prevention & service learning Teacher, bus driver, and other staff training D-16
17 Our Future D-17
