St. Callistus Chapter Hosts Event on Underage Drinking for Parents |
 |
St. Callistus FNL Chapter applied for and received a small mini-grant to help them complete an environmental prevention project. The youth started off by administering a survey and found out their peers felt that underage drinking is a major issue. As a result of the survey, the chapter members put together a presentation, a video, and also organized a panel of knowledgeable speakers who work in the field of underage drinking prevention. They then hosted a Parent Night where parents could interact with the panelist. Parents learned about statistics gathered through the effects of underage drinking. A film was also presented demonstrating the effects of underage drinking. The event was a complete success with over forty parents in attendance!

Currently, the St. Callistus chapter youth are working on Merchant Education. They’ll be going out to stores with alcohol available for purchase encouraging the business owners to check ID’s before selling to young adults. |
