File Description:
Leadership to Keep Children Alcohol Free, a unique coalition of Governors' spouses, Federal agencies, and public and private organizations, is an initiative to prevent the use of alcohol by children ages 9 to 15. It is the only national effort that focuses on this age group. Alcohol use begins at a very young age, and the proportion of young people who drink often or heavily is alarming. Serious, often lifelong consequences for health and well-being can result. The Leadership initiative is alerting the Nation to this critical public health problem and mobilizing action to prevent it. More information may be found at www.alcoholfreechildren.org.

File Description:
Illicit drug use among women has received increased attention as a health problem during the last three decades, particularly, but not exclusively, with regard to use during pregnancy. Nearly 50 percent of American women ages 15-44 have used illicit drugs at least once in their lifetime. The peak age for use among women parallels the peak child bearing years, 15-44 years of age, which is of special concern due to the risks to the fetus.
