The recently published "Surgeon General's Call to Action To Prevent and Reduce Underage Drinking" [ED496083] highlights underage alcohol use as a major public health and safety issue. This Guide to Action for Educators highlights key issues related to underage drinking found in the complete "Call to Action To Prevent and Reduce Underage Drinking." It was developed to provide educators and other school personnel a guide to what they can do to take action against underage drinking and why. [This public document was edited by Patricia A.
