ABSTRACT: The effects of early childhood education on preventing substance abuse are crucial for addressing public health challenges and promoting healthy behaviors from an early age. This study investigates how early childhood education programs contribute to substance abuse prevention efforts. The objectives are to (1) assess improvements in children's knowledge of substance abuse risks and healthy behaviors, (2) evaluate the integration of substance abuse prevention activities in early childhood education curricula, and (3) examine changes in community attitudes towards substance use and addiction. A survey design is chosen to systematically collect data on educational impacts on substance abuse prevention. A purposive sample of 110 children aged 4-6 years, from communities with substance abuse prevalence in Ondo State, ensures relevant experiences. The case study focuses on an early childhood education center known for its substance abuse prevention initiatives. Findings revealed significant improvements in children's knowledge of substance abuse risks and healthy behaviors, effectiveness of substance abuse prevention activities, and positive changes in community attitudes towards substance use. Recommendations include integrating substance abuse prevention education into early childhood curricula and collaborating with healthcare providers and community organizations to support prevention efforts and promote healthy lifestyles.
