conclusion.
KEYWORDS
Addiction, psychoactive, variability, central nervous system, physiological, isolation.
INTRODUCTION
State policies and programs play an important role in
solving the problem of drug addiction among young
people. It is necessary to develop effective policies and
programs that require an integrated approach to
prevent drug addiction and reduce its negative
consequences. In this regard, the measures
implemented by the states can be in different
directions and strategies.
Firstly, one of the main directions of state policy is the
introduction of preventive education programs to
protect young people from drug addiction. These
programs are implemented in educational institutions,
youth centers, and other social settings [1]. Educational
programs educate young people about the harmful
effects of drug addiction, the factors that influence its
development, and how to avoid it. At the same time,
trainings aimed at supporting the psychological and

social health of young people, developing stress
management and coping skills are also held. One of the
main directions of state policy in protecting young
people from drug addiction is the introduction of
preventive education programs. These programs are
implemented in educational institutions, youth
centers, and other social settings. Their goal is to
provide young people with complete information
about the harmful consequences of drug addiction and
the factors that influence the development of this
problem.
Secondly, it is important for the state to organize
informative and entertaining activities for young
people. Social activities such as sports, art, and
scientific research keep young people away from drug-
oriented environments and provide opportunities for
them to spend time productively. Involvement of
young people in social activities, focusing on
interesting and useful activities, helps to avoid
dangerous habits such as drug addiction [2]. In order to
prevent young people from dangerous habits such as
drug addiction, informative and entertaining activities
provided by the state are of great importance. These
types of activities include social activities such as
sports, art, and scientific research, and they provide
opportunities to keep youth away from drug-oriented
environments and to spend time productively.
Thirdly, government programs should be aimed at
improving the health and social services system in
solving drug addiction problems. This, in turn, includes
the prevention and treatment of drug-related diseases,
the organization of rehabilitation programs for drug
addicts, and the strengthening of social support.
Rehabilitation programs help young people recover
from addiction and re-socialize. State programs should
be focused on improving the health and social services
system in solving drug addiction problems. Measures
taken in this direction can be effective in the fight
against drug addiction. In this, first of all, there are
important tasks such as prevention and treatment of
drug-related diseases, secondly, organization of
rehabilitation programs for drug addicts, and thirdly,
strengthening of social support.
Strengthening social assistance is aimed at ensuring
social protection of people suffering from drug
addiction and improving their living conditions [3]. In
this context, it is necessary for the government to
provide services such as social assistance programs,
financial assistance, and psychological counseling. The
effectiveness of social support helps to accelerate
social integration and the return of drug addicts to
society. Thus, government programs should be aimed
at improving the health and social services system in
solving drug addiction problems. This includes the
prevention and treatment of drug addiction, the
establishment of rehabilitation programs, and the
strengthening of social support, which helps young
people to get out of addiction and re-socialize.

Fourthly, the state policy should include strengthening
cooperation with law enforcement agencies in the
fight against drug addiction. Drug addiction can be
prevented by controlling the sale and distribution of
drugs, implementing legal measures and educating the
public. The problem of drug addiction is widespread on
a global scale, and in addition to restrictions between
countries, it also creates internal risks. In order to
effectively solve this problem, public policy requires
strong cooperation with law enforcement agencies
[4]. One of the important aspects of public policy is the
control of drug trafficking and distribution. For this,
first of all, it is necessary to create effective systems for
identifying drug-related crimes and searching for their
sources. Success in the prevention of criminal activity
can be achieved through the integration and sharing of
expertise between law enforcement agencies.
It is also important to develop special laws and
regulatory legal documents to provide legal assistance
to the public and fight drug addiction within the
framework of state policy. These documents help to
more effectively punish drug crimes and prevent crime.
Through coordinated cooperation between law
enforcement
agencies
and
other
relevant
organizations, public policy helps to create an effective
system of combating drug addiction. In general, state
policies and programs for the prevention of drug
addiction among young people require a complex,
multifaceted approach. In this regard, programs in the
fields of education, social activities, health and law
enforcement should be implemented in a mutually
coordinated manner.
The problem of drug addiction is widespread among
young people around the world, and countries are
developing various policies and programs to combat
this problem. There are many scientific studies on the
effectiveness of state policies and programs to combat
drug addiction. At the same time, the views of foreign
scientists show
that
this
issue
requires
a
comprehensive approach. Several foreign scientists
emphasize the importance of an effective state policy
in the fight against drug addiction. For example,
research by S. H. B. Roberts and J. C. Smith (2019)
examines how public policies and programs can play a
role in youth substance abuse prevention. Roberts and
Smith examined the effectiveness of large public
programs and policies, such as prevention lectures,
drug prevention education programs, and health care.
On the opposite side, European countries such as the
Netherlands and Sweden adopt softer and more
supportive strategies. The Netherlands' policy of
decriminalization and the creation of information and
counseling services for young people has shown
positive results. A 2021 study by Jan S. Verbeek found
that the rate of drug use among teenagers in the
Netherlands is 30 percent lower than in neighboring
countries with stricter measures (Verbeek, 2021).
However, despite strict laws and high public scrutiny in

Sweden, there is a perception that the "zero
tolerance" policy can have negative consequences. A
2023 study by Axel Holmsson found that stricter
punitive measures can lead to an increase in "hidden"
drug addiction, as young people begin to hide their
drug use and avoid seeking help (Holmsson , 2023).
Thus, international experience shows that there is no
universal approach to drug addiction prevention
among young people. The US, the Netherlands and
Sweden demonstrate different approaches with
different strengths and weaknesses. It is important to
consider local characteristics and culture when
developing and implementing prevention programs.
Constant sharing of experience and studying the
effectiveness of different strategies will help to
formulate more comprehensive and flexible policies
against drug addiction in the youth environment.
