ALCOHOL EDUCATION PROGRAMS: AN EXPANDED VIEW
For effectiveness in providing information and experiences to teenagers which will affect their drinking and driving behaviour, educators must become involved with community alcohol programs, colleges and universities and other groups interested in the drinking and driving problems. This article gives a brief description of selected alcohol education programs for teenagers conducted by community organizations. These include the following: the Jaycees youth oriented alcohol education program titled "All in the Family"; the 4-H program titled "Know Your Limits"; and Camp Fire Incorporated's "Horizon In My Pocket". College and University programs in the University of Massachusetts-Amherst and the University of Florida (BACCHUS program) are briefly described. Traffic safety oriented alcohol education programs in schools are also discussed.
