Strategies

Use mass media campaigns to persuade individuals to avoid drinking and driving or to prevent others from doing so; campaigns often focus on the negative consequences of alcohol-impaired driving

Require employers in an affected jurisdiction to provide paid time off for employees to use when ill or injured

Establish programs that accept expired, unwanted, or unused medicines from designated users and dispose of them responsibly

Provide industry-focused education and job training based on the needs of regional employers within specific sectors

Provide objective, normative information to reduce college students’ misperceptions about alcohol use and, ultimately, change their drinking behavior

Provide all students with the information and skills to prevent alcohol use; programs can be delivered via a specific curriculum or as a component of classroom behavior management

Provide participating high school students with professional opportunities that combine academic and on-the-job training or mentorship
