BREAKING NEWS: Urban Outfitters Pulls Prescription-Themed Products
Just over a month ago, we learned that Urban Outfitters, the national retail store popular with teens, was selling products made to look like prescription pill bottles. These products made light of prescription drug misuse and abuse, a dangerous behavior responsible for more deaths in the United States each year than heroin and cocaine combined. We launched an advocacy effort and petition to ask the company to remove these products from their stores and website, and it was reported that Urban Outfitters has halted sale of these products.
Underage Drinking In The Home
While many parents may think that allowing teens to drink at home under adult supervision keeps them safe and leads to healthier attitudes about drinking, the truth is that there are serious negative consequences for both parents and teens. The Partnership at Drugfree.org teamed up with The Treatment Research Institute to create a new, interactive resource to help inform parents about their legal liabilities if they serve alcohol to teens.
