Gabe Jenks Memorial Scholarship

Explain in as much detail as you are comfortable with how drug and alcohol use has affected your life. Substance use is far-reaching, so this is not solely for individuals who have struggled with drugs and alcohol personally. You may also explain how the substance use of those close to you has impacted your life. Conclude your essay with your personal viewpoints on how drug and alcohol use has become so prevalent in the United States, and share what you think should be done to improve it.
