“We need to rethink our approach to the treatment of substance abuse. Addiction Vulnerability Scale gives the health care professionals the unique ability to assess the individuals as young as 12 years of age for physiological and environmental vulnerabilities. Now, for the first time ever, we can assess addiction even before it begins!”
