Prevent Substance Use Disorder

The Greater Lowell community believes that prevention is just one piece of the puzzle needed to decrease the number of individuals who acquire Substance Use Disorder (SUD). There are a number of efforts taking place across our communities to empower youth and young adults to make healthy decisions about using alcohol, tobacco, marijuana, prescription drugs (not prescribed to them), and other drugs throughout their lifetimes. The information below is a great starting point to learn more about ways to prevent Substance Use Disorder and the efforts taking place in our community.
