Abstract
This paper introduces the contributions of this special section on connecting family-focused substance abuse prevention research and practice. Other expert reviews and the meta-analyses discussed in this and the following papers have given us a good idea about what works in this area. They have specified a number of family-focused substance abuse prevention approaches and programs effective in decreasing substance abuse in youth. Unfortunately, some practitioners are still primarily implementing untested, ineffective programs. A number of recommendations are made by the authors of this special section to help improve the adoption of evidence-based family programs to prevent substance abuse by youth.
