Sec. 1521. Findings
-STATUTE-
Congress finds the following:
(1) Substance abuse among youth has more than doubled in the
5-year period preceding 1996, with substantial increases in the
use of marijuana, inhalants, cocaine, methamphetamine, LSD, and
heroin.
(2) The most dramatic increases in substance abuse has occurred
among 13- and 14-year-olds.
(3) Casual or periodic substance abuse by youth today will
contribute to hard core or chronic substance abuse by the next
generation of adults.
(4) Substance abuse is at the core of other problems, such as
rising violent teenage and violent gang crime, increasing health
care costs, HIV infections, teenage pregnancy, high school
dropouts, and lower economic productivity.
(5) Increases in substance abuse among youth are due in large
part to an erosion of understanding by youth of the high risks
associated with substance abuse, and to the softening of peer
norms against use.
(6)(A) Substance abuse is a preventable behavior and a
treatable disease; and
(B)(i) during the 13-year period beginning with 1979, monthly
use of illegal drugs among youth 12 to 17 years of age declined
by over 70 percent; and
(ii) data suggests that if parents would simply talk to their
children regularly about the dangers of substance abuse, use
among youth could be expected to decline by as much as 30
percent.
(7) Community anti-drug coalitions throughout the United States
are successfully developing and implementing comprehensive,
long-term strategies to reduce substance abuse among youth on a
sustained basis.
(8) Intergovernmental cooperation and coordination through
national, State, and local or tribal leadership and partnerships
are critical to facilitate the reduction of substance abuse among
youth in communities throughout the United States.

FIVE-YEAR EXTENSION OF DRUG-FREE COMMUNITIES SUPPORT PROGRAM
Pub. L. 107-82, Sec. 1(a), Dec. 14, 2001, 115 Stat. 814, provided
that: ''Congress makes the following findings:
''(1) In the next 15 years, the youth population in the United
States will grow by 21 percent, adding 6,500,000 youth to the
population of the United States. Even if drug use rates remain
constant, there will be a huge surge in drug-related problems,
such as academic failure, drug-related violence, and HIV
incidence, simply due to this population increase.
''(2) According to the 1994-1996 National Household Survey, 60
percent of students age 12 to 17 who frequently cut classes and
who reported delinquent behavior in the past 6 months used
marijuana 52 days or more in the previous year.
''(3) The 2000 Washington Kids Count survey conducted by the
University of Washington reported that students whose peers have
little or no involvement with drinking and drugs have higher math
and reading scores than students whose peers had low level
drinking or drug use.
''(4) Substance abuse prevention works. In 1999, only 10
percent of teens saw marijuana users as popular, compared to 17
percent in 1998 and 19 percent in 1997. The rate of past-month
use of any drug among 12- to 17-year-olds declined 26 percent
between 1997 and 1999. Marijuana use for sixth through eighth
graders is at the lowest point in 5 years, as is use of cocaine,
inhalants, and hallucinogens.
''(5) Community Anti-Drug Coalitions throughout the United
States are successfully developing and implementing
comprehensive, long-term strategies to reduce substance abuse
among youth on a sustained basis. For example:
''(A) The Boston Coalition brought college and university
presidents together to create the Cooperative Agreement on
Underage Drinking. This agreement represents the first
coordinated effort of Boston's many institutions of higher
education to address issues such as binge drinking, underage
drinking, and changing the norms surrounding alcohol abuse that
exist on college and university campuses.
''(B) In 2000, the Coalition for a Drug-Free Greater
Cincinnati surveyed more than 47,000 local students in grades 7
through 12. The results provided evidence that the Coalition's
initiatives are working. For the first time in a decade, teen
drug use in Greater Cincinnati appears to be leveling off. The
data collected from the survey has served as a tool to
strengthen relationships between schools and communities, as
well as facilitate the growth of anti-drug coalitions in
communities where such coalitions had not existed.
''(C) The Miami Coalition used a three-part strategy to
decrease the percentage of high school seniors who reported
using marijuana at least once during the most recent 30-day
period. The development of a media strategy, the creation of a
network of prevention agencies, and discussions with high
school students about the dangers of marijuana all contributed
to a decrease in the percentage of seniors who reported using
marijuana from over 22 percent in 1995 to 9 percent in 1997.
The Miami Coalition was able to achieve these results while
national rates of marijuana use were increasing.
''(D) The Nashville Prevention Partnership worked with
elementary and middle school children in an attempt to
influence them toward positive life goals and discourage them
from using substances. The Partnership targeted an area in
East Nashville and created after school programs, mentoring
opportunities, attendance initiatives, and safe passages to and
from school. Attendance and test scores increased as a result
of the program.
''(E) At a youth-led town meeting sponsored by the Bering
Strait Community Partnership in Nome, Alaska, youth identified
a need for a safe, substance-free space. With help from a
variety of community partners, the Partnership staff and youth
members created the Java Hut, a substance-free coffeehouse
designed for youth. The Java Hut is helping to change norms in
the community by providing a fun, youth-friendly atmosphere and
activities that are not centered around alcohol or marijuana.
''(F) Portland's Regional Drug Initiative (RDI) has promoted
the establishment of drug-free workplaces among the city's
large and small employers. Over 3,000 employers have attended
an RDI training session, and of those, 92 percent have
instituted drug-free workplace policies. As a result, there
has been a 5.5 percent decrease in positive workplace drug
tests.
''(G) San Antonio Fighting Back worked to increase the age at
which youth first used illegal substances. Research suggests
that the later the age of first use, the lower the risk that a
young person will become a regular substance abuser. As a
result, the age of first illegal drug use increased from 9.4
years in 1992 to 13.5 years in 1997.
''(H) In 1990, multiple data sources confirmed a trend of
increased alcohol use by teenagers in the Troy community.
Using its 'multiple strategies over multiple sectors' approach,
the Troy Coalition worked with parents, physicians, students,
coaches, and others to address this problem from several
angles. As a result, the rate of twelfth grade students who
had consumed alcohol in the past month decreased from 62.1
percent to 53.3 percent between 1991 and 1998, and the rate of
eighth grade students decreased from 26.3 percent to 17.4
percent. The Troy Coalition believes that this decline
represents not only a change in behavior on the part of
students, but also a change in the norms of the community.
''(6) Despite these successes, drug use continues to be a
serious problem facing communities across the United States. For
example:
''(A) According to the Pulse Check: Trends in Drug Abuse
Mid-Year 2000 report -
''(i) crack and powder cocaine remains the most serious
drug problem;
''(ii) marijuana remains the most widely available illicit
drug, and its potency is on the rise;
''(iii) treatment sources report an increase in admissions
with marijuana as the primary drug of abuse - and adolescents
outnumber other age groups entering treatment for marijuana;
''(iv) 80 percent of Pulse Check sources reported increased
availability of club drugs, with ecstasy (MDMA) and ketamine
the most widely cited club drugs and seven sources reporting
that powder cocaine is being used as a club drug by young
adults;
''(v) ecstasy abuse and trafficking is expanding, no longer
confined to the 'rave' scene;
''(vi) the sale and use of club drugs has grown from
nightclubs and raves to high schools, the streets,
neighborhoods, open venues, and younger ages;
''(vii) ecstasy users often are unknowingly purchasing
adulterated tablets or some other substance sold as MDMA; and
''(viii) along with reports of increased heroin snorting as
a route of administration for initiates, there is also an
increase in injecting initiates and the negative health
consequences associated with injection (for example,
increases in HIV/AIDS and Hepatitis C) suggesting that there
is a generational forgetting of the dangers of injection of
the drug.
''(B) The 2000 Parent's Resource Institute for Drug Education
study reported that 23.6 percent of children in the sixth
through twelfth grades used illicit drugs in the past year.
The same study found that monthly usage among this group was
15.3 percent.
''(C) According to the 2000 Monitoring the Future study, the
use of ecstasy among eighth graders increased from 1.7 percent
in 1999 to 3.1 percent in 2000, among tenth graders from 4.4
percent to 5.4 percent, and from 5.6 percent to 8.2 percent
among twelfth graders.
''(D) A 1999 Mellman Group study found that -
''(i) 56 percent of the population in the United States
believed that drug use was increasing in 1999;
''(ii) 92 percent of the population viewed illegal drug use
as a serious problem in the United States; and
''(iii) 73 percent of the population viewed illegal drug
use as a serious problem in their communities.
''(7) According to the 2001 report of the National Center on
Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia University entitled
'Shoveling Up: The Impact of Substance Abuse on State Budgets',
using the most conservative assumption, in 1998 States spent
$77,900,000,000 to shovel up the wreckage of substance abuse,
only $3,000,000,000 to prevent and treat the problem and
$433,000,000 for alcohol and tobacco regulation and compliance.
This $77,900,000,000 burden was distributed as follows:
''(A) $30,700,000,000 in the justice system (77 percent of
justice spending).
''(B) $16,500,000,000 in education costs (10 percent of
education spending).
''(C) $15,200,000,000 in health costs (25 percent of health
spending).
''(D) $7,700,000,000 in child and family assistance (32
percent of child and family assistance spending).
''(E) $5,900,000,000 in mental health and developmental
disabilities (31 percent of mental health spending).
''(F) $1,500,000,000 in public safety (26 percent of public
safety spending) and $400,000,000 for the state workforce.
''(8) Intergovernmental cooperation and coordination through
national, State, and local or tribal leadership and partnerships
are critical to facilitate the reduction of substance abuse among
youth in communities across the United States.
''(9) Substance abuse is perceived as a much greater problem
nationally than at the community level. According to a 2001
study sponsored by The Pew Charitable Trusts, between 1994 and
2000 -
''(A) there was a 43 percent increase in the percentage of
Americans who felt progress was being made in the war on drugs
at the community level;
''(B) only 9 percent of Americans say drug abuse is a
'crisis' in their neighborhood, compared to 27 percent who say
this about the nation; and
''(C) the percentage of those who felt we lost ground in the
war on drugs on a community level fell by more than a quarter,
from 51 percent in 1994 to 37 percent in 2000.''
