Preferred term

social skills training  

Definition

  • Social skills training forms an integral part of both prevention and intervention efforts in addressing the negative effects of substance use. Although former First Lady Nancy Reagan adopted the simplistic slogan "Just Say No" as the centerpiece of her efforts to prevent the initiation of young people into alcohol and other drug use, for many young people and their older adult counterparts, avoiding first or continued substance use is not that simple.
