关于现在知道

In an effort to fulfill the requirements of the Drug Free School Program, Collin College’s 咨询服务 coordinates 现在知道, an initiative which began programming in the fall 2017 semester. 的 purpose of 现在知道 is to educate Collin College students about issues related to substance use and abuse, empower students to make positive choices for their futures, and encourage utilization of campus and community resources for recovery. 这项倡议的目标是：

• Develop prevention and education regarding current trends, statistics, and issues related to the consumption of alcohol and other substances through:
  • presentations coordinated by 咨询服务 about issues concerning substance use and abuse,
  • promoting alcohol-free social options in partnership with student engagement events, and
  • campaigns to share statistics and trends in the community that may affect the normative environment.

• 培养学生的早期干预意识，使他们能够自我转介：
  • promoting use of online screening tools (available on the 咨询服务 网站) to identify problematic substance use and
  • 为关注药物使用的学生提供评估和转介。

• Increase awareness of resources that may assist students affected by addiction (either personally or those who have peers and/or family in need of support) by educating them about community resources for treatment (e.g., no- or low-cost treatment options, support services such as Alcoholics Anonymous [AA] and Narcotics Anonymous [NA], and off-campus counseling options).
