National Alliance for Drug Endangered Children
"The National Alliance for Drug Endangered Children promotes the DEC team concept and public awareness for the problems faced by these children. The Alliance provides multi-disciplinary training for communities interested in starting or expanding DEC programs. The Alliance supports a nationwide network of professionals serving drug endangered children by providing referrals to experts, updated research on topics concerning drug endangered children, and best practice information. In June 2004, the Alliance held a very successful national conference dedicated to discussion of important medical, psychosocial, scientific, legal, social service and data collection topics concerning drug endangered children."




Meth and the Brain

  • Meth releases a surge of dopamine, causing an intense rush of pleasure or prolonged sense of euphoria.

  • Over time, meth destroys dopamine receptors, making it impossible to feel pleasure.

  • Although these pleasure centers can heal over time, research suggests that damage to users' cognitive abilities may be permanent.

  • Chronic abuse can lead to psychotic behavior, including paranoia, insomnia, anxiety, extreme aggression, delusions and hallucinations, and even death.




The Meth Epidemic
