“Critical Dialogue with Native Youth about Underage Drinking - Our Culture is Prevention” is the title of the SAMHSA Native American underage drinking video, which was produced in an ongoing collaboration with states and territories to produce videos that support local underage drinking prevention communication efforts. Using ‘Culture is Prevention’ as its theme, as well as youth and adult testimonials, the video addresses the consequences of underage drinking, the reasons Native youth choose not to drink, and the way Native cultures and traditions help promote resilience and prevent substance use.
