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.''
