SAMHSA’s Underage Drinking Prevention Work

CAMPAIGN GOAL

Reduce underage drinking among youth ages 9 to 15 by engaging parents in prevention behaviors.

KEY FINDINGS

• For parents:– Underage drinking is not a top-of-mind issue;– No participant believes his or her child drinks; and– A recognized government agency must support the

research.• For youth:

– Talk about alcohol in context of a recent event; and– Mom is the go-to parent, but other trusted adults

can also deliver underage drinking prevention message.

PARENTS ARE IMPORTANT

• Parents are the primary messengers for underage drinking prevention.

• To be successful, parents need prompts and conversation starters.

• Parents should take advantage of opportunities to discuss the issues as they present themselves.
