The Problem

Our vision is to create a community where youth are seen as assets and have access to a number of opportunities and experiences that foster human potential and leadership, thus preventing destructive decisions and behaviors.

Plan of Action

Change the community environment and increase positive social norms to promote healthy behaviors through education, collaboration, policy, enforcement, and communication. Activities include: Sticker Shock Campaigns to raise awareness around the minimum drinking age. Shoulder Tap Surveys and Compliance Checks to reduce youth access to alcohol. Social Norms Campaigns to promote healthy behaviors among youth and adults. Public Service Announcements to promote awareness and community action.
