Overview: Clearly, Florida has led the nation in leading its children away from substance abuse. One area, however, where Florida remains locked with the rest of the nation is on youth alcohol abuse. Moreover, binge drinking is high among this group, as are all the unsafe and unhealthy practices that go along with adolescent drinking.
