Addictions have social, psychological, economic, physical and emotional impacts on those families and indirectly on the entire population. Youth is always at risk level in this. So no disease of addiction and treatment can cure us completely but prevention keeps us away from danger. Risk factors in society are often beyond the individual's control, so it is necessary to increase or strengthen protective factors. It is important to plan and implement preventive measures in a parallel manner at different levels such as individual factors, personality factors, environment, family, neighborhood, school and society.
