Theme for 2022 Art Contest Entry
“Celebrate LIFE. Live Drug Free!”
According to the Arizona Criminal Justice Commission 2018 Arizona Youth Survey for Navajo County:
Navajo County teens who have ever used illicit drugs in their lifetime include:
Navajo County (Lifetime)
| 8th grade | 10th grade | 12th grade | |
| Alcohol | 23.50% | 50.50% | 56.80% |
| Marijuana | 13.80% | 39.50% | 46.50% |
| All Rx | 7.40% | 16.70% | 12.70% |
And, despite the numbers, for many people, the facts about drugs are not clear.
