Addiction to drugs is not just a user's problem. Substance misuse has impacted every facet of

strategy for reducing drug usage is education. Other environments, including educational
institutions, are significant because of the contributions they make to socialization and
learning. Since drugs are the most serious problem confronting our society, the researchers
