Description

The stigma attached to drug abuse is often reinforced by racial and ethnic stereotypes while at the same time these very stereotypes push young people towards substance abuse. It is this complex cycle of reinforcing negative stereotypes, marginalization, and drug abuse that prompted this publication which is meant for use by youth groups and workers dealing with this issue.
