Strategies

Support acquisition of job-specific skills through education, certification programs, or on-the-job training, often with personal development resources and other supports

Provide information and increase motivation to change or prevent problematic alcohol consumption in a short session; also called alcohol screening & brief intervention

Prohibit criminal history questions on job applications and postpone background checks

Restrict alcohol consumption anywhere on a college or university campus or only in specific areas (e.g., residence halls)

Support organized social, art, or physical activities for school-aged youth outside of the school time

Organize workers to bargain collectively for improved wages, benefits, and working conditions

Use television, radio, print, and social media efforts to increase awareness of underage drinking and its consequences

Distribute Naloxone to trained community members and first responders to reverse opioid overdoses

Engage community members to determine how public budgets are spent, ideally to improve neighborhood conditions and reduce inequality.

Increase the number of registered voters through initiatives that reduce barriers and expand accessibility, including automatic voter registration (AVR), voter registration drives, easing voter registration requirements, and expanding registration sites
