Together We Stand

Join us!

Together we Stand is a campaign to reduce access and availability of alcohol to minors.

Join us! Research shows that youth are receptive to clear, consistent no-use messages from the people and organizations that touch their lives.

At this time of year, prom, graduation, end of school year celebrations and summer gatherings are events where an opportunity for underage drinking might present itself.

It is important that we work together to discourage underage drinking. Car crashes, violence, and other serious health issues can all be consequences of underage drinking.

What can YOU do?

Help spread the word. This year's campaign message is a call to all those in our community who care about youth, to help keep alcohol out of youths' hands.
