For this program, the following definitions apply:
Drug or substance use refers to a person taking a drug, either prescribed or not, in a way other than it is intended to be used.

Polyvictims are victims or survivors of more than one type of victimization (such as sexual abuse, physical abuse, neglect, bullying, and exposure to family violence) and those who have experienced multiple victimizations over a lifetime (Finkelhor, D., Turner, H., Ormrod, R., Hamby, S., & Kracke, K.

(2009).
