The Problem
13 is the average age of
first-time drug and
alcohol use.
9 out of 10
addictions start in
the teen years.
There is no national programming
in schools to teach youth about
drug and alcohol abuse.

We harness the latest insights into youth behavior, brain development, and social norms, along with the influence of cultural icons, to inspire young people to discover and engage in their passions, what we call natural highs.

Trusted by Parents and Educators
“We had a productive talk, watched the video, and talked a bit more. My son (age 13) was engaged in the video. It was also really helpful to my husband and I in educating us on fentanyl and teen drug use. The Natural High website is an excellent resource that we will continue to go back to in order to keep the conversation going!”
