- Underage Drinking: A Major
Public Health Challenge
-
Apart from being illegal, underage drinking
poses a high risk to both the individual and society. For example,
the rate of alcohol-related traffic crashes is greater for drivers
ages 16 to 20 than for drivers age 21 and older. Adolescents
also are vulnerable to alcohol-induced brain damage, which could
contribute to poor performance at school or work. In addition,
youthful drinking is associated with an increased likelihood
of developing alcohol abuse or dependence later in life. Early
intervention is essential to prevent the development of serious
alcohol problems among youth between the ages of 12 and 20.
This Alcohol Alert describes some of the most harmful consequences
of underage drinking as well as prevention and treatment approaches
that can be applied successfully to meet the unique needs of
this age group. NIAAA, 2003, 4pp.

Drinking Prevention Action Guide and Planner
-
This
Action Guide is designed as a monthly planner that can be used
as personal calendar or to schedule and track alcohol abuse
prevention activities. For each month a theme or issue is suggested
and a call to action provides ideas for activities appropriate
for that month's theme. A few of the themes are alcohol and
family life, alcohol and popular culture and alcohol and the
college experience. Activities are suggested for communities,
businesses, social events, media, parents and youth. Also included
for each month are facts about alcohol abuse that can be incorporated
into speeches, letters, brochures, or public service announcements.
To support the activities suggested in the monthly planner,
the Action Guide includes information on liquor laws, factors
that affect underage drinking, raising public awareness about
underage drinking issues, and creating effective community networks.
Sample letters, press releases, speeches, and other materials
that can be easily adapted to meet local needs are provided
as well. CSAP, 2001, 60pp.
