I have two questions. Dr. Lambert was talking about prevention, education and young people and introducing drugs education and how it can be counterproductive. She also mentioned, and I would like her to clarify this because I want to be sure I am understanding her correctly, youth diversion services and how referring a young person to youth diversion can be counterproductive. Did I hear her correctly and can she elaborate?
