Publications
Adventures in Parenting
This booklet offers strategies on parenting that are based on scientific research that can be used by parents and guardians of children of any age. It also includes stories of how some parents have incorporated these strategies into their day-to-day parenting, as well as insights from parenting experts.

A Family Guide to Keeping Youth Mentally Healthy and Drug Free
Although these tips are designed for parents, they can be used by adults more generally in their relationships with teenagers. Research supports the fact that these common sense lessons can also help teens delay becoming sexually active, as well as encourage those who are having sex to use contraception carefully.
