An article published last week by the Kaiser Family Foundation (KFF) recommended — rightly, we think — that more stress needs to be put on drug prevention. But the article, which focused on Colorado schools, oddly did not mention the role of marijuana legalization in drug use by young people. Legalization began in Colorado; it was the first state to legalize marijuana. The state administration was hoping to reap tax benefits. Other states have followed. All have had disappointments in the revenue factor. But for this article to report that teaching resilience to young people is the best prevention of drug use, leaving drugs — especially marijuana—out of the curriculum, is not only tone deaf, it is fact deaf. Also note that the [Drug Abuse Resistance Education] D.A.R.E. program has changed radically from what it was, although many people forget this (see https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/adaw.31046).
