The Hauppauge Youth and Community Alliance presents: What Your Kids Are Really Saying About Drugs and Alcohol

The New York State Youth Development Survey was given to all 7th-12th grade students during the 2010-11 school year. The survey was designed to assess risk factors and protective factors that indicate substance use and other problem behaviors in adolescents and factors that prevent students from participating in substance abuse.

The Hauppauge Youth and Community Alliance invites you to hear:

  •  Trends and patterns were identified in the survey
  •  How the results will guide the work of the Youth & Community Alliance Committee
