I came up with this campaign because i have first hand seen people i know struggle with drug abuse, and it is something that I and many other people would like to see stop.

Teens against drugs/drinks is a campaign to put an end to underage drinking and substance abuse. My goal with this project is to inform teens, help people with substance abuse issues, and help these people even after rehab/when they are "clean".

In my home state/area substance has been a huge issue, throughout and before my lifetime, especially in Baltimore, Hagerstown, Washington D.C, and even in Frederick County. Statistically Baltimore has some of the worst drug issues in the whole nation, and drug selling has only spread and increased.
In my county and community alone, I have seen many people get clean and then fall back into their old ways. This is not just a problem in urban areas, this is a huge problem everywhere.

My goal for TAD is to set up programs within this campaign to cater to people specifically with substance abuse issues, educating people about substance abuse, getting people quickly into rehabilitation, and helping people stay clean post rehabilitation.
I think these programs are very important, especially for someone who is struggling with substance abuse and is really having a hard time to stop using.  In my community I always hear about how easy it is to get drugs, and how simple it is for someone who is sober to turn back to drugs, especially in the DC, Maryland, and Virginia area. With these programs, I really hope that these people could open up to a therapist and get other types of help to combat the withdrawal.
