The Partnership for a Drug-Free America has announced the launch of a new website aimed at helping Hispanic families. Habla Con Tus Hijos is a Spanish-language web resource filled with tips and guidance on how parents can best start, and continue, honest conversations with their children about drug use.

The following details were included in a press release to announce the establishment of the new website:

"Habla Con Tus Hijos" is the new Spanish-language counterpart to the Partnerships ongoing parent movement, Time to Talk".

Both Habla Con Tus Hijos and Time to Talk are grounded in the Partnerships national research that consistently shows kids who learn a lot about the risks of drugs from their parents are up to 50 percent less likely to use drugs than those who do not get that crucial message at home.

Parents and caregivers will be able to download Spanish-language tools and resources that will guide them in their conversations with their kids. The web site is culturally relevant, and most of the resources are available free of charge.
