Preventing Underage Drinking
The Governor’s Prevention Partnership invites you to join us for a FREE webinar next Wednesday, January 29th and we hope you will pass along this information to your contacts.
A Parent’s Guide to Preventing Underage Drinking
Underage drinking is continuing to be a barrier in the lives of youth. As adults we have a responsibility to provide youth with the information to help them make responsible decisions. A Parent’s Guide to Preventing Underage Drinking is a comprehensive tool to help adults start conversations with youth about the dangers of illegal alcohol use. This webinar will walk participants through the guide and give examples of how to talk to youth about alcohol use starting in elementary school up to college. Adults will gain greater insight to new research and myths in alcohol use among teens. Discussion will include state data as well as national data to emphasize the importance of parents and caring adults in the lives of youth. Information will be provided on how to get involved with prevention efforts in your community and how to seek help if there is a concern about underage drinking. Participants will also receive valuable information on new alcohol products and marketing strategies to help start conversations.
