Before your teen goes to prom, make sure they have an exit plan. Agree on a word, phrase, or emoji that they can text you if they find themselves in a situation that they want to get out of. You agree to go pick them up, no questions asked. The goal is to get them home safely and foster trust so they turn to you again in the future.

Antes de que tu hijo o hija vaya al baile de graduación, asegúrate de que tenga un plan de salida. Acuerden una palabra, frase o emoji que te pueda enviar por mensaje si se encuentra en una situación de la que quiere salir. Tú te comprometes a ir a recogerlo, sin hacer preguntas. El objetivo es que llegue a casa sano y salvo y que se fortalezca la confianza para que cuente contigo en el futuro.

When we understand mental health challenges can be at the root of addiction, we start asking 'how can we help?’ with no judgement. That question alone can make a big difference. https://www.samhsa.gov/find-support

Saying no to alcohol doesn't have to be a whole conversation. Grab a soda or water when you walk in. If you have a full cup, you can say you already have a drink if you're offered one. Nobody needs to know what's inside.

Decir no al alcohol no tiene que significar toda una conversación. Agarra una soda o agua cuando llegues. Si tienes el vaso lleno, puedes decir que ya tienes algo para tomar si alguien te ofrece. Nadie necesita saber qué hay adentro.

Hosting a prom after-party for your teen? Connecticut's Social Host Law makes you legally responsible for any alcohol or cannabis consumed by minors on your property, whether you're home or not. That's a Class A misdemeanor. If you serve alcohol or cannabis directly, you face additional fines and potential jail time. Protect everyone and lock your liquor and cannabis.

¿Vas a organizar una fiesta de graduación para tu hijo o hija? La Ley de Responsabilidad Social de Connecticut te hace legalmente responsable por cualquier consumo de alcohol o cannabis por menores en tu propiedad, estés tú en casa o no. Eso es un delito menor Clase A. Si sirves alcohol o cannabis directamente, enfrentas multas adicionales y posible tiempo en prisión. Protege a todos y guarda bajo llave el alcohol y el cannabis.
