From our family to yours
LSIS's mission is to build each child’s resistance to substance abuse through age-appropriate education, reassurance, understanding, peer support and access to help.
With these podcasts, we want to share how families of all kinds connect with their adolescent children in a way that helps maintain rapport and builds resilience against the risks of substance abuse.
