This page contains links to web sites and pages having to do with Drugs. If you have read the other sections of our Web site, you will know that we are totally against the use of drugs for non-medical purposes (and even then abuse occurs). We include this information so that the public may stay informed, parents and youth can find out the facts, and that all will know that Jesus Christ has provided a cure for problems of all sorts, including drug abuse. For more information on Teen Challenge, check out Teen Challenge. The information is divided into the following categories:

Illegal Drugs

Legal, but Abused (includes designer drugs, alcohol)
Special Issues
Prevention
Legalization Issues, Studies, Research Papers
