Who We Are
The Teensmag is written by Youth for Youth. It is a Resource Guide for Counsellors, Educators and Parents. The Teensmag is interesting, informative and should be read by youth aged 14 - 18 years old.
This publication focuses on Drug Education, Drug Prevention and Drug Awareness and encourages Youth to make healthy and informed decisions relating to the dangers of Substance Abuse and the influence of their peers.
The underlying message is that each individual must make the most of their own lives by making correct choices.
Youth is our best asset - and ultimately our only asset!
Our Founder
The Teensmag was first published in 1988 by psychologist, Dr. Merv Mason. The idea to create a magazine for Youth about Alcohol and Drug Abuse awareness came to him when he noticed very little information was available to students on this topic. Dr. Mason was inspired and determined to make a difference and the idea for The Teensmag was born.
