2006 Youth Drug Survey

“Substance Abuse Prevention Services (formerly The Drug Education Center) has conducted a countywide Youth Drug Survey (YDS) since 1972.  This survey has been an important tool to help identify the extent of substance abuse problems among youth throughout the community and to assist in generating and providing services.  As a result, Charlotte has one of the longest time frames within which to see change and to monitor community based programs.  In December 2006, Substance Abuse Prevention Services in collaboration with Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools, Mecklenburg County Area Mental Health Authority and Mecklenburg County Health Department administered the self-report YDS to 2,193 students in grades 6-12.
