Teens Ask Teens

When you're a teen, sometimes it feels like the only one who understands you is another teen.

Peers know what you're dealing with—we face the pressures of school, social life, and family every day like you do. We know what it's like to have to make decisions, including decisions about trying or taking drugs

We're a group of teens who have volunteered to answer your questions and hear your concerns about drugs.

We're representatives of D.A.R.E.'s Youth Advisory Committee and we want to know what's on your mind.

    I feel peer pressure every day. What has really helped me is having friends that made a choice to stay drug free like I have.
