RICHMOND, Va. -- An innovative mental wellness resource was co-developed by prevention specialists and youth advocates to address the rising concerns around substance use in a way that feels relevant and safe for teens.
It’s called the Substance Use and Prevention Journal, and it’s available for free through local schools, community partners and Cameron K. Gallagher Foundation (CKG) youth programming.
Catie-Reagan King, Ed.D., director of mental health education at CKG and Jacquelyn Smith-White, prevention program manager at Henrico Prevention Services, joined us in studio to talk about the tool.
