Thank you for agreeing to participate in this voluntary survey. If you choose to take it, you may skip any question you don’t want to answer.
This survey asks about your experience and opinion on a number of topics related to alcohol, tobacco, and drug use. Your answers to these questions will be confidential. That means no one will connect your answers with your name or other identifying information. To help us keep your answers confidential, please do not write your name on this survey form.
The information in this survey will be used to learn more about the effectiveness of programs in preventing substance abuse.
This is not a test, so there are no right or wrong answers. Some questions may ask you to select all of the answers that are relevant, and others ask you to select a single answer. If the question asks for a single answer and you don’t find an answer that exactly fits, choose one that comes closest.
Before we begin, let me read the following to you:
