Let's Talk Project
NAVIGATING YOUTH
SUBSTANCE USE
IN MARIN COUNTY
Let’s Talk is a resource for parents and caregivers, centered around
the idea that with a lot of solid science, and a lot of heart, we can
support our youth as they navigate the tough stuff.
LET’S START THE TALK
According to the data, teens in our community have easy access and the opportunity to use drugs and alcohol. This is a reality. But as parents and caregivers, we can help them navigate through these tough decisions. Where can we start? Know the facts, communicate openly, and listen to our youth. To learn more, check out one of our community discussions and download a Let’s Talk booklet for middle and high school.
The Letter that was mailed to the parents
TEENS CAN BE SO MUCH FUN, WITH THEIR EXUBERANCE, CREATIVITY AND CRITICAL THINKING. BUT THERE’S A DOWNSIDE IN THAT THEY ARE HARDWIRED FOR RISK.
-Laurie Dubin, Marin Parent and Founder, Be the Influence
