Recent studies indicate that more and more young people are abusing mari|uana. alcohol and co­ caine. In fact, substance abuse among the nation's youth has reached such crisis proportions that nationally known figures such as the Rev Jessie Jackson and First Lady Nan cy Reagan have traveled around the country warning them of the danger of drug and alcohol abuse In an effort to provide an alter native for these youth. Dr. Thomas Boothe, President of Addiction Dia gnostic Services, has developed the Anti Boredom Motivational Pro gram for Youth. The program targets youth from 6 years old to 21 years old, parents with children not yet born, and chil dren up to 6 years old (pre school!.

Besides tins. Dr Boothe said so ciety and parents send conflicting messages to our youth concerning the danger of drugs and alcohol abuse He points to widespread advertising of tieer and wine on T V. portraying people having fun or re taxing Often those intoxicants are promoted by well known sports and entertainment figures "Furthermore, our children see us as parents and adults seemingly needmg intoxicants to have fun, relax, and to cope Why can't they use the same formula for having fun relaxing and coping before our children reach that magic ago of it's O K that many have already become addicted to intoxicants, said Dr Boothe Dr Boothe said his program is the only program winch commuru cates a clear alternative to boredom for youth beyond the examples set by their peers, parents and other adults My Anti Boredom Motiva tional program communicates on all fronts a continuously clear, strong, long lasting (high) on constructive productive creativity which will combat boredom while serving as an alternative to intoxicants." Dr Boothe said specific Anti Boredom information and activities for youth are secret at this point.
