 Neighborhoods, Communities & Youth~ Our most recent issue of The Prevention Researcher is now available to purchase online. This issue explores the impact of neighborhoods and communities, by focusing on one of the most critical aspects of that environment- the adults who live and work within it. Go to: www.TPRonline.org.
Going Green Blog~ The Prevention Researcher is excited to announce that we will start our first blog in the next month! We will be discussing steps we’re making to go green, starting with our use of FSC paper and ink that is vegetable-based with soy content. We will announce our new blog in a special email blast once it is up and running!

Methamphetamine Q&A
Do you have questions about the effects of methamphetamines on the family?
Do you want to know how to best support youth with meth-addicted parents?
We are currently soliciting questions about the effects of meth on the family. Questions will be answered in our upcoming Resource Issue by Dr. Wendy Haight. Dr. Haight has recently conducted research with youth in foster care because of parent methamphetamine abuse. She interviewed child-welfare workers, counselors, youth, and caregivers. This is your opportunity to find out how to best support these youth and their caregivers.
Submit your questions to ckimball@TPRonline.org by May 12, 2008. Everyone who submits a question will receive this issue free in December.
(Please note that not all questions will be answered and questions may be modified by editorial staff.)
