New Site Helps Hispanic Parents Talk to Children About Dangers Drugs
The Partnership for a Drug-Free America has announced the launch of a new website aimed at helping Hispanic families. “Habla Con TusHijos†is a Spanish-language web resource filled with tips and guidance on how parents can best start, and continue, honest conversations with their children about drug use.
The following details were included in a press release to announce the establishment of the new website: "Habla Con TusHijos" is the new Spanish-language counterpart to the Partnership’s ongoing parent movement, Time to Talk™.
Both ‘Habla Con TusHijos’ and Time to Talk are grounded in the Partnership’s national research that consistently shows kids who learn a lot about the risks of drugs from their parents are up to 50 percent less likely to use drugs than those who do not get that crucial message at home.â€
Parents and caregivers will be able to download Spanish-language tools and resources that will guide them in their conversations with their kids. The web site is culturally relevant, and most of the resources are available free of charge.
