Strong Interest from Our Youth
Karyn Gramling, Chairperson
Spring has sprung. There is much happening, both
within CASA and at the schools. It’s a busy time!
CASA continues to expand our programming and
reach even more youth with the addition of the
Junior Prom and Mother/Son event. Our traditional
events such as Fashion Show and Rx Drug Drop-off
in April keep on drawing student interest. SafeRides
continues to attract student volunteers who do good
work. U21 is exploding with talented student acts!
Drug Awareness Week saw more than 200 teens
sign a pledge to drive sober. At least 300 juniors heard firsthand from the driver of the MADD crash
car. Over 100 teens will participate in the Fashion Show.
More than 60 students consistently attend U21 events. CASA
is also working with Youth Community Service to promote the
eChugToGo online alcohol/drug use feedback tool now on the
school website. We hope to create an effective model that
can be adapted at other schools.
Happy Spring!

From the Chair
CASA promotes Social Emotional Learning (SEL)
Karyn Gramling, Chairperson
In recent years a promising new approach to school
improvement has steadily gained traction among the
nation’s educators, premised on the idea that social-
emotional learning (SEL) is every bit as critical to
students’ success as their mastery of purely
academic content and skills. Moreover, early
research findings suggest that the new generation of
SEL approaches is having significant and positive
impacts on students’ overall well-being, their
behavior in and out of school, and their academic
performance as well.
Broadly speaking, SEL refers to a holistic approach
to education, one that addresses not only students’
academic needs but also their development as
individuals, classmates, neighbors, and citizens. For example, SEL programs often touch on issues
such as character education, conflict resolution, civic engagement, the promotion of good nutrition and
healthy personal behavior, the prevention of bullying, and the creation of safe and supportive
classroom and school environments.
At present, the most widely adopted definition was developed by the Chicago-based Collaborative for
Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL), which divides SEL into five key “competencies”:
Self-awareness: The ability to accurately recognize one’s emotions and thoughts and their influence
on behavior. This includes accurately assessing one’s strengths and limitations and possessing a well-
grounded sense of confidence and optimism.
Self-management: The ability to regulate one’s emotions,
thoughts, and behaviors effectively in different situations. This
includes managing stress, controlling impulses, motivating
oneself, and setting and working toward achieving personal and
academic goals.
Social awareness: The ability to take the perspective of and
empathize with others from diverse backgrounds and cultures, to
understand social and ethical norms for behavior, and to recognize
family, school, and community resources and supports.
Relationship skills: The ability to establish and maintain healthy
and rewarding relationships with diverse individuals and groups.
This includes communicating clearly, listening actively, cooperating, resisting inappropriate social
pressure, negotiating conflict constructively, and seeking and offering help when needed.
Responsible decision-making: The ability to make constructive and respectful choices about
personal behavior and social interactions based on consideration of ethical standards, safety
concerns, social norms, the realistic evaluation of consequences of various actions, and the well-being
of self and others.
CASA's programs and activities for youth are designed primarily with the "competency" of responsible
decision making in mind. The goal of all CASA's programs from Red Ribbon Week in elementary
school to Drug Awareness Week in middle and high schools is to foster healthy lifestyle choices that
help young people resist alcohol and drugs. By teaching them about the dangers of substance use
and providing alternative activities, it is our hope that they will make responsible choices.

Editor’s Corner
Self-Medicating with Prescription Drugs
Lily Lu, MFTi
Some 25 per cent of teens:
Report having misused or abused a prescription (Rx) drug at
least once in their lifetime.
Say their parents don’t care as much if they are caught using
Rx drugs without a doctor’s prescription, compared to getting caught with illegal drugs.
Mistakenly believe that misusing and abusing prescription drugs is safer than using street
drugs.
Think “it’s okay to use prescription drugs that were not prescribed to them to deal with an
injury, illness or physical pain”.
The 2012 Monitoring the Future survey reported that, “prescription and over-the-counter (OTC) drugs
are among the most commonly abused drugs by 12th graders, after alcohol, marijuana, synthetic
marijuana and tobacco. Youth who abuse prescription medications are also more likely to report the
use of other drugs.”
As we all know, when a doctor prescribes medicine, it treats our medical problems effectively and
safely. These Rx drugs taken in a form such as a pill gets to the brain slowly and, at a dose that treats
the issue. It does not overwhelm the system reducing the potential for addiction.
The most common types of Rx drugs being abused are:
Opioids such as pain relievers. Examples are
OxyContin and Vicodin.
Central nervous system depressants and
tranquilizers such as Xanax and Valium.
Stimulants such as Concerta and Adderall.
Just like illicit drugs, the abuse of these Rx drugs can
have strong negative effects in the brain and body.
Did you know that opioid painkillers act on the same
sites in the brain as heroin; prescription stimulants
have the same effects as cocaine?
These OTC medicines are obtained from the medicine cabinet in the family’s and friends’ homes.
Such abuse is now the leading cause of deaths from car crashes. Emergency room visits due to such
accidents from the misuse or abuse of prescription drugs more than doubled between 2004 and 2010.
In drug overdose deaths, opioid painkillers were the most commonly found drug, accounting for almost
40 percent of these deaths.
“Parents fear drugs like cocaine or heroin and want to protect
their kids. But the truth is that when misused and abused,
medicines – especially stimulants and opioids – can be every
bit as dangerous and harmful as those illicit street drugs….As
parents and caring adults, we need to take definitive action to
address the risks that intentional medicine abuse poses to the
lives and the long-term health of our teens,” said Steve
Pasierb, President and CEO of The Partnership at
Drugfree.org.
Help your kids be aware that, if someone they care about is
abusing or misusing prescription drugs, encourage that person
to talk to a parent, school guidance counselor, or other trusted
adult.
Take the pledge to become educated about this important health issue at MedicineAbuseProject.org.

Reminder
Substance Abuse Prevention Tips for Parents
http://ncadd.org/index.php/for-parents-overview/prevention-tips
Without question, Talking With Your Children is
extremely important in our efforts to protect our kids
from alcohol and drugs. But there are other things
that we need to do as parents to be effectively
involved in preventing alcohol and drug problems for
our kids and in our families.
Before we review our Ten Tips for Parents, there
are two important points to be aware of:
1. Why is there so much focus on keeping kids
alcohol and drug free?
Recent scientific research has found that the longer
an individual postpones the onset (first use) of
alcohol, tobacco or other drug use, the less likely the individual is to develop an addiction or other
lifelong problems, including depression.
2. The Power of Parents: Believe it or not, parents are the most powerful influence on their kids when
it comes to drugs. Recent research has found that 2 out of 3 kids ages 13-17 say that losing their
parents' respect is one of the main reasons they don't drink alcohol, smoke marijuana or use other
drugs.
So then, as a parent, what can I do use my influence to encourage or promote prevention efforts with
my children?
Here are Ten Tips for Parents:
1. Don’t Be Afraid to be the “Bad” Parent: Sometimes, our fear of negative reaction from our
kids keeps us from doing what is right. When it comes to alcohol and drugs, taking a tough
stand can help our children to say no….“my mom or my dad would kill me if I drank or used.”
Our decisions and our rules allow our child to use us as “the reason” for not using alcohol or
drugs.
2. Connect With Your Child’s Friends: Pay attention to who your child is hanging out with,
who’s coming to the house and get to know them. Encourage your child’s friends to come to
your home, invite them for dinner and make them feel welcomed. Encourage your child to
invite friends over to the house.
3. Make Connections With Other Parents Too: As you get to know your kids friends, take the
opportunity to introduce yourself to his/her parents. It’s a great way to build mutual support and
share your rules about alcohol and drugs. And, it will make it easier for you to call if your
son/daughter is going to a party at their house to make sure that there will be responsible
parental supervision.
4. Promote Healthy Activities: Help your kids, and their friends, learn how to have fun, and fight
off the dreaded “I’m bored.” Physical games, activities and exercise are extremely important
because of the positive physical and mental benefits. Encourage kids to become engaged in
other school and community activities such as music, sports, arts or a part-time job. The more
your children are active, the less time they have to get caught up in the pressure from peers to
drink alcohol and use drugs.
5. Establish Clear Family Rules About Alcohol and Drugs: Setting specific, clear rules is the
foundation for parental efforts in prevention, some
ideas:
• Kids under 21 will not drink alcohol
• Kids will not ride in a car with someone who
has been drinking or using drugs
• Older brothers and sisters will not encourage
younger kids to drink or use drugs
• Kids under 21 will not host parties at our home
without parental supervision
• Kids will not stay at a kid’s party where alcohol
or drugs are present.
Consistent enforcement of the rules, with
consequences, if needed is essential. Without
consequences the rules have no value and will
not work.
6. Get Educated About Alcohol and Drugs: You
cannot rely on your own personal experiences or common sense to carry you through. Your
ability to provide family leadership in prevention requires you to be better educated. As a start,
visit Learn About Alcohol and Learn About Drugs. And, as you learn, share what you are
learning with your spouse and your kids.
7. Be a Role Model and Set a Positive Example: Bottom line…. from a kid’s perspective, what
you do is more important than what you say! Research studies show that parents who drink
alcohol or use drugs are more likely to have kids who drink or use. If you drink alcohol, do so in
moderation; if you use medication, use only as directed, and do not use illegal drugs. If you
host a party, always serve alternative non-alcoholic beverages and do not let anyone drink and
drive.
8. Keep Track of Your Child’s Activities: Asking questions, keeping track, checking in are all
important. Research has found that young people who are not regularly monitored by their
parents are four times more likely to use alcohol or drugs. Make the time to know what is
happening in your child’s life – especially in families where both parents work outside of the
home, life is busy but you must find time for your children – know what they are up to!
9. Keep Track of Alcohol and Prescription Drugs: For kids, the most common source of
alcohol and prescription drugs is parents. Make sure that your home is not a source of alcohol
or prescription drugs for your kids or their friends.
10. Get Help!: If at any point you suspect that your child is having a problem with alcohol and/or
drugs (What to Look For), get help. Don’t wait. You are not alone.
AS A PARENT, YOU CAN HELP PREVENT YOUR CHILD FROM BECOMING ADDICTED TO
ALCOHOL OR DRUGS.
