Between the early 2000s and 2011, the percentages of adolescents reporting exposure to drug or alcohol use prevention messages in the past year through media and school sources generally declined
In 2011, 40 percent of adolescents did not talk with their parents about the dangers of substance use, and one quarter did not receive prevention messages through media or school sources
Adolescents aged 12 to 14 were less likely than those aged 15 to 17 to have received prevention messages through media sources and to have talked with a parent about the dangers of substance use but were more likely to have received messages through school sources and to have participated in a substance use prevention program outside of school.
