| Every day, children all across America face emotional and physical neglect, bodily harm, and even sexual abuse because their parents or caregivers use, possess, deal, or manufacture illegal drugs or other controlled substances. Children growing up in these environments are denied the fundamental developmental experiences required to self-regulate, relate, communicate, and think. If we do nothing, we send a message that what's happening to them is okay. The National Alliance for Drug Endangered Children (National DEC) believes the best way to respond is with a collaborative approach that puts kids' needs first. When professionals work together to identify children endangered by drugs and drug-related activities, we can change the trajectory of their lives. This flash drive is an easy-to-use collection of training materials, videos, articles, and other resources designed to help you identify drug endangered children, and help break the cycle of abuse and neglect.Categories: Nonviolent Crime • School and Campus Safety • Youth SafetyLanguage: EnglishPublic link
