'Family Day: A Day to Eat Dinner With Your Children'
In recognition of Family Day, Salt Lake City Mayor Rocky Anderson joined state officials and local grocers at a separate press conference Monday at the City and County Building to announce participation in the initiative, which was created by CASA in 2001.
According to the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse, teenagers who rarely eat dinner with their families are about 70 percent more likely to abuse alcohol or drugs than teens who eat dinner with their families five or more times per week.
