How Can We Help?
Preventing Prescription Drug Misuse: Understanding Who Is at Risk, is organized according to the socio-ecological model, a multi-level framework that allows us to consider the different contexts in which risk and protective factors exist. This model considers the different contexts and settings with which a person interacts and is based on the premise that we are influenced not only by traits specific to us or what we think and believe, but by our relationships with others, the institutions and communities to which we belong, and the broader society in which those institutions are embedded.
