Juvenile - Drug Information

Houston County is a wonderful place to live and go to school. However, drugs are tearing apart our community. Parents, it is no longer safe to think “It’s Just A Little Weed”. Our kids are not only smoking marijuana, they are doing other dangerous drugs as well. If you think your child may have a substance abuse problem, please contact the Phoenix Center (478) 988-1222.

Marijuana

Marijuana is an extremely popular drug among juvenile delinquents. What most kids don’t know is that marijuana is being laced or mixed with drugs like PCP. This increases your chances of addiction!

Triple C’s / Skittles / Coricidin Abuse
