In 1998, with bipartisan support, Congress created the National Youth Anti-Drug Media Campaign with the goal of preventing and reducing youth drug use. Unprecedented in size and scope, the Campaign is the most visible symbol of the Federal government's commitment to youth drug prevention. The Campaign is a strategically integrated communications effort that combines advertising with public communications outreach to deliver anti-drug messages and skills to America's youth, their parents and other influential adults. |

Taking Action Against Methamphetamine |
| The problems associated with the synthetic drug methamphetamine demand aggressive and collaborative solutions. |
| To combat methamphetamine production, trafficking and abuse, the Bush Administration has a comprehensive strategy involving the Department of Justice (DOJ), the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), and ONDCP working in conjunction with state and local officials. The Administration's efforts are focused on four core areas: prevention and treatment; law enforcement; education; and management of the drug's unique consequences. |
| ONDCP, DOJ, and DHHS have launched a new website, MethResources.gov, as a tool for policymakers, law enforcement officials, treatment and prevention professionals, businesses and retailers, and anti-drug activists. The comprehensive site brings together information and resources available to communities on the topic of methamphetamine. |
|
The DEA also launched Justthinktwice.com. The site provides information about the consequences and damaging effects that methamphetamine and other drugs can have on the user and community. |
|
ONDCP and PDFA have also launched an ad campaign targeting methamphetamine.
