Saying "no" is hard, but there is help available.

When we talk about taking dangerous drugs, we can all say NO. But, what we say and what we do may not match.

When it comes to dangerous drugs like cocaine and heroin, or prescription medications that can be abused, such as narcotics, anti-depressants, and diet pills, saying NO can be hard. Often it means getting treatment for addiction and making small but steady changes in lifestyle.

Help is available if you struggle with these issues. There are clinics where professionals are trained to provide prenatal care to women with special needs. It is hard to ask for help, but if you, or someone you know, needs help please take the first step--start talking to a friend and a professional who is committed to help.
