c. no individual group possesses the full range of information about illegal drug use
d. law enforcement in most states does not prosecute drug use or does not prosecute it severely
please select the best answer from the choices provided.

Explanation:

Drug - use prevention is complex and requires multiple strategies like education (schools), public outreach (communities), and legal consequences (law - enforcement). No single group can handle it alone. Option A correctly states that a mixture of strategies is needed for prevention, which is why partnerships are important. Option B is incorrect as there is no indication that federal law requires partnerships for funding. Option C is not the best reason as it's more about the need for different strategies rather than just information. Option D is not relevant to why partnerships are needed for prevention.

Answer:

A. preventing illegal drug use requires a mixture of strategies, including education, public outreach, and legal consequences
