Building Blocks for a Healthy Future is an early childhood substance abuse prevention program developed by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). Designed for parents and caregivers of children ages 3 to 6, Building Blocks will help you open up the lines of communication with young children-and make it easier to keep those lines of communication open as they grow older.
