What can national data tell us about substance use among young people, and how can those insights help shape prevention and treatment efforts here in Franklin County?

The newly released 2025 National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) offers a closer look at substance use and mental health indicators among adolescents and young adults, along with broader behavioral health trends across the country. These findings help inform the work of ADAMH and its provider network as we work to strengthen prevention efforts and ensure services reflect the needs of our community.
