The Canadian Centre on Substance Abuse (CCSA) has released an online learning module that will help prevention professionals better understand the Portfolio of Canadian Standards for Youth Substance Abuse Prevention.

The module:

- Walks users through case studies to provide examples of how the Standards can be put into practice
- Provides concise explanations of the tools and resources available in the Standards
