Student Alcohol, Tobacco, and Other Drug Use Study

Every two years, the State of Hawai‘i Department of Health, Alcohol and Drug Abuse Division (ADAD) and the University of Hawai‘i Speech Department collaborate in conducting a study of 6th-, 8th-, 10th-, and 12th-grade public and private school students. The study is designed to assess prevalence and trends in substance abuse, treatment needs, and risk and protective factors that predict substance use and abuse among Hawai‘i's youth.
