International Drug Education Study Begins:
In a ground-breaking collaboration together with top scientists,
educators and practitioners in Germany, The Center for Educational
Research and Development (CERD) in San Diego, California,
will begin the FIRST large-scale, international drug education
program and study targeting young people and their positive
possibilities of resilience. “Despite a 40-year interdisciplinary
and longitudinal research legacy—showing that nearly
80% of young people considered most ‘at risk’
thrive by midlife—only recently have practitioners/researchers
engaged in the intentional facilitation of “resilience”
in educational settings,” according to Dr. Joel Brown,
CERD’s executive director.here.
