According to Welfare group Mission Australia, Canberra teens are most concerned about the rate of drug and alcohol abuse amongst young people.
Teenagers say it is their most difficult personal dilemma, according to an annual national youth survey released recently.
Out of the respondents from the ACT between the ages of 15 and 19, more than 29 per cent said alcohol and drugs were the greatest problem of the nation’s teens. This was followed by concerns over discrimination and equality.
