Adolescence is a time of physical, mental and social development when experimentation with substances like alcohol, tobacco and cannabis is common. The use of these substances during adolescence can negatively impact healthy development and often leads to chronic, long-term use and health problems. It is important to consider how experimentation during youth can act as a gateway to more serious substance abuse issues later in life.

This document discusses the links between positive prevention efforts, the legal environment, and programs that empower people living with HIV/AIDS. It argues that an effective response requires improving the entire legal environment through three main strategies: 1) Empowering affected communities with legal literacy and access to justice, 2) Improving law enforcement through training, and 3) Legislating or reforming discriminatory laws. Monitoring the legal environment and working with partners in government and civil society are also important. Support for essential programs that reduce stigma and discrimination, provide legal aid, and change harmful social norms need to be properly funded and scaled up. Positive prevention efforts should advocate for human rights and demand that combination prevention includes a focus on legal and policy reforms.
