Episode Details

Michigan’s pouring $3.75 million into youth drug prevention—funded by opioid lawsuit money—to amplify proven programs across the state, including five in Southeast Michigan. Groups like the National Council and The Youth Connection each get $375K to expand initiatives that blend fun with education, like basketball leagues tied to substance awareness—and now aim to include girls. Families are also getting involved, since support at home matters. With vaping and legal marijuana adding new pressures, the goal is clear: delay first use until age 21 to avoid lifelong addiction. This is serious investment in kids’ futures—giving them tools to thrive in a changing world.
