/ April 30, 2015

As leaders in the treatment of youth and young adult addiction, the Hazelden Betty Ford Institute for Recovery Advocacy is interested in obtaining proprietary national data on youth and young adult drug awareness and use. More specifically, Hazelden Betty Ford Institute for Recovery Advocacy wants to uncover (1) young people’s knowledge about opioids, (2) youth perceptions around the dangers of opioids, (3) how young people perceive a link between prescription pain medications and heroin, (4) degree to which young people view prescription opioids as easily obtainable, and, (5) views youth have for prescription opioids as a problem among their peer group.
