Show Notes

Drinking alcohol is on the decline among B.C. teens — but not as much for teens who identify as lesbian, gay or bisexual, according to a new study from the University of British Columbia. The study results come from data collected from the B.C. Adolescent Health Survey which has surveyed students in grades 7 to 12 on various health questions across B.C. every five years since 1998.

GUEST: Elizabeth Saewyc - UBC Nursing Prof, Senior Author on the Study
