Not everyone at the party is holding a drink—and that’s okay! When someone says, “I’m not drinking,” the best response isn’t “Why not?” but instead:

✨ “Good for you!”
✨ “What can I get you instead?”

Whether it’s recovery, a health choice, or they simply don’t feel like drinking, their decision is valid—and worth celebrating. Let’s normalize respecting people’s choices and creating a welcoming environment for everyone, no matter what’s in their glass!

Talking to kids about addiction can feel overwhelming—but the right tools make it easier. Learn how to approach the conversation with honesty, compassion, and age-appropriate resources.

By healing the next generation and helping them to understand addiction before they reach adulthood, it is possible to help children make choices that don’t result in substance misuse in the future.
