The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) and the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism are gearing up for National Drug and Alcohol Facts Week® (NDAFW ([link removed])) 2023 to be held March 20-26. NIDA’s flagship health education observance, is held in partnership with the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA). NDAFW is an annual, week-long health observance ([link removed]) that inspires dialogue about the science of drug use and addiction among youth.  NDAFW offers educators, prevention specialists, counselors, and other youth intermediaries flexible programming to identify topics ([link removed]) of greatest interest to their community and science-based information and resources that help improve knowledge and awareness, while also promoting skills that support informed decision-making, healthy coping, and other skills that are critical to the prevention of substance use among youth. For more than a decade the National Drug & Alcohol Facts Week educational campaign has been working with Federal, State, and Municipal governments to share NIDA’s science-based resources. During NDAFW 2023, NIDA encourages event planners ([link removed]) to use the attached Institute’s resources to help support social media, web and email promotion. Every year, we have representation from every state in the U.S. along with several international countries. We welcome the opportunity to tell you more about this exciting, upcoming opportunity to connect with NIDA and incorporate NDAFW into the important work they are already doing to prevent substance use in their communities.  If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at [email protected] (mailto:[email protected]) for assistance and please register your event today ([link removed]).
