DEA Launches New Educational Website for Parents: GetSmartAboutDrugs.com

GetSmartAboutDrugs.com was developed as a resource for parents and caregivers to help them identify drug abuse, prevent children from using drugs, and find resources for substance abuse prevention in an informative, non-technical manner.

The website was introduced February 11 at the annual National Leadership Forum of one of DEA’s partner organizations, the Community Anti-Drugs Coalition of America. Speaking to forum participants, Acting Administrator Michele M. Leonhart said, “In this fight, information is power, and DEA’s new website has current, accurate, and practical information about how to spot signs of abuse, identify drugs and paraphernalia, and how to talk to teens about drugs.” GetSmartAboutDrugs.com is a follow-up to DEA’s highly popular site for teens, JustThinkTwice.com.
