12. NIDA InfoFacts: High School and Youth Trends - website “Since 1975 the Monitoring the Future (MTF) survey has measured drug, alcohol, and cigarette use and related attitudes among adolescent students nationwide. Survey participants report their drug use behaviors across three time periods: lifetime, past year, and past month; for some drugs, daily use is also reported. 1 Initially, the survey included 12th-graders only, but in 1991 it was expanded to include 8th- and 10th-graders. The MTF survey is funded by NIDA and is conducted by the University of Michigan's Institute for Social Research. The 35th annual study was conducted during 2009. 2” 1 2 http://www.nida.nih.gov/NIDAHome.html

13. Positive Findings: “Cigarette smoking is at its lowest point in the history of the survey “ “Between 2004 and 2009, a drop in past-year use of methamphetamine was reported for all grades” “From 2004 to 2009, decreases were observed in lifetime, past-year, past-month, and binge use of alcohol across the three grades surveyed. 3” 3 “In 2009, 12th-graders reported declines in use across several survey measures of hallucinogens” “Attitudes toward substance abuse showed many favorable changes. “ http://www.nida.nih.gov/NIDAHome.html

14. Areas of Concern: Marijuana use across the three grades has shown a consistent decline since the mid-1990s. The trend has stalled, however, with prevalence rates remaining steady over the last 5 years. From 2008 to 2009, lifetime, past-month, and daily use of smokeless tobacco increased significantly among 10th- graders. Past-year nonmedical use of Vicodin and OxyContin increased during the last 5 years among When asked how prescription narcotics were obtained for nonmedical use, about 52 percent of 12th-graders said they were given the drugs or bought them from a friend or relative. Additionally, 30 percent reported receiving a prescription for them, and a negligible number of 12th- graders reported purchasing the narcotics over the Internet. 6 6 http://www.nida.nih.gov/NIDAHome.html
