N2  - There is profound value in involving youth in the cultural adaptation of evidence-based drug prevention curricula. Presently, despite the existence of evidence-based programs, few community settings are aware of, utilizing, and following evidence-based curricula in practice. Therefore, to transfer such programs to practice, systematic adaptation procedures should be further developed, utilized, and evaluated. It is recommended that community settings adapt curricula to meet their youths' unique needs to be effective, particularly with diverse cultures.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
