About:

Substance abuse is a widespread problem in the United States. Many people believe that drug use is
limited to older teenagers and adults. Inhalants are easy to come by, legal, and perceived by kids as
being low risk relative to other abused substances. A big problem is that inhalant abusers are generally
younger and use peaks between the 7th and 9th grades.
