Stand Up to Alcohol Abuse
Reduce risky alcohol use
Alcohol impairs judgment, making for some risky situations. If you or your friends use alcohol, make sure to look out for one another. Be on the watch for signs that trouble is brewing and help get your friend out of the situation. If a friend's alcohol or marijuana use is negatively affecting them or others, make a plan to share your concern. These situations can be challenging; StandUP! will give you skills to handle them effectively.
