Abstract
Substance use among youth aged 12 to 17 presents a major public health concern in the United States with statistics revealing that one in eight youths have engaged in illicit substance misuse within the past year (National Center for Drug Abuse Statistics, 2023). The long-term consequences of youth substance use include complicated medical issues, mental health disorders, impaired brain development, social and behavioral issues, addiction and dependence problems, and financial and legal consequences. By comprehending, preventing, and addressing factors of youth substance use, parents, educators, and healthcare providers can protect the well-being of young individuals, their families, and the community.
