The total drug control funding recommended for the fiscal year is $17.1 billion, an increase of 6.8 percent over the level enacted for fiscal year 1998. The proposed funding includes an increase of $491 million for treatment and prevention programs and an increase of $602 million for supply reduction efforts. The largest percentage increase in fiscal year 1999 is for Goal 1 activities that target youth; new resources are included for a school counselor initiative, prevention research, and youth tobacco use prevention. In addition, the Office of National Drug Control Policy will continue the Youth Media Campaign, which will use media ranging from television to the Internet to discourage drug use by youth, increase the perception of risk and disapproval associated with drugs, and encourage parents and other adult leaders to talk to children about drugs.
