We hope you will join SAMHSA’s continuing efforts to raise awareness about mental and/or substance use disorders by planning a NPW 2016 event in your community! This year’s theme—Strong as One, Stronger Together—recognizes that one person can make a positive difference in their community, but when we all unite together we can achieve even more.
Six of the 7 days during NPW 2016 have a suggested theme:
· Prevention of Tobacco Use – Monday, May 16
· Prevention of Underage Drinking & Alcohol Misuse – Tuesday, May 17
· Prevention of Prescription & Opioid Drug Misuse – Wednesday, May 18
· Prevention of Illicit Drug Use & Youth Marijuana Use – Thursday, May 19
· Prevention of Suicide – Friday, May 20
· Promotion of Mental Health & Wellness – Saturday, May 21
