Leadership to Keep Children Alcohol Free
Summary:
Leadership to Keep Children Alcohol Free is an initiative aimed at preventing alcohol use by children between the ages of 9 and 15. It is made up of a coalition of Governors’ spouses, federal agencies, and public and private organizations desiring to educate both policymakers and the public about the problem of alcohol use among children and to galvanize prevention efforts. This site provides both information and resources aimed at increasing awareness of the extent and consequences of early alcohol use as well as methods to prevent alcohol use among children.
