Teachers and school staff are in a unique position to affect both the behavior and attitudes of youth- and provide role modeling and direction as well. Alcohol is so entrenched in our culture that sometimes the line is blurry between what is appropriate to communicate with youth, and what isn't. Here are some resources that can help.
In addition to the links above, the resources on our Parents page may also be of interest.
And coming soon... "Straight Up: A Youth Activity Guide for Preventing Underage Drinking"! This guide is being developed by 21 Reasons for use by youth groups. The guide helps groups research underage drinking problems in their community and then provides activities that will help create environmental change. The guide is expected to be available this winter.
