STANFORD MEDICINE: HALPERN-FELSHER REACH LAB
The Halpern-Felsher REACH lab studies developmental, cognitive, psychosocial, and cultural/social factors involved in adolescents' and young adults' health-related decision-making, perceptions of risk and vulnerability, health communication, and risk behavior. Our work particularly focuses on understanding and reducing adolescent and young adult substance use (including electronic cigarettes, cigarettes, alcohol, and marijuana), risky sexual behavior, and risky driving. Our research uses a large number of methodological approaches, including longitudinal studies, online data collection methods, mixed qualitative and quantitative data, interview and focus group data, and survey data. We also develop, implement, and evaluate interventions, using pre-post tests and randomized control trials. Our research spans several age groups, including children, adolescents, young adults, and parents.

Drug Take Back Locations
Unneeded prescription medication–those that are old, unwanted, or no longer needed – are a public safety issue, too often becoming a gateway to addiction. The majority of opioid addictions start with prescription pills found in medicine cabinets at home. Pharmaceutical drugs can be just as dangerous as street drugs when taken without a prescription or a doctor’s supervision. A majority of people who misuse a prescription medication obtained the medicine from a family member or friend. DEA’s National Prescription Drug Take Back Day events are one way to dispose of unneeded medications. Beyond Take Back Day, there are opportunities to regularly and safely dispose of unneeded medications at pharmacies, hospitals, police departments, and businesses working to clean out medicine cabinets throughout the year.
