We used data from the Spanish State Survey on Drug Use in Secondary Education, which covers drug use among students aged 14–18 years.

The nonmedical use of BDZ and Z-hypnotics was more likely in adolescent girls than boys (AOR = 2.11). The nonmedical use of prescription opioids (AOR = 3.44), novel psychoactive substances and other illicit psychoactive drugs (AOR = 4.10) were risk factors for the nonmedical use of BDZ and Z-hypnotics in both sexes.

AACAP's Presidential Initiative of CAPture Belonging's goal was to prioritize diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging to create transformational and sustainable changes in the organization and child and adolescent psychiatry. The presidential initiative's strategy had three pillars: advancing diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) in all program and services, creating a pipeline for diverse child and adolescent psychiatrists, and monitoring DEIB activities and progress. A presidential task force was created and charged with implementing a 2-year action plan and strategy. A 5-point action plan prioritized: awareness, advocacy, workforce and professional development, national partnerships, and sustainability. Focusing on DEIB for any organization enriches the work, community and success that can be achieved. AACAP is proud to have committed to this DEIB path and has already experienced success through continuous membership growth, membership engagement, and record attendance at annual meetings and volunteer involvement.
