In response to the current COVID-19 pandemic, we are turning our attention to making sure that parents and educators have all the resources they need to help young people make the right choices during this challenging time.
Multiple studies have already shown that rates of drug and alcohol abuse are on the rise during the pandemic, and one recent article called it the ‘perfect storm.’ Some have predicted as many as 75,000 collateral deaths from substance abuse.
Natural High understands the urgent necessity for prevention during this time and is committed to providing young people with access to free and effective resources and helping them build the skills they need to thrive. We are sharing our free content for all who need it in several easy-to-access formats.
