The use and abuse of alcohol among American Indian & Alaska Native (AI/AN) youth is complex and has propagated into a major public health concern across Indian Country. Prevention of underage drinking requires strategies that are developed within the appropriate contexts of the historical, cultural, and social demographic factors of alcohol abuse and other deeply rooted related problems in AI/AN communities.
This webinar examines prevention and intervention best practices in providing tribal youth a safe space and tools to:
1) explore and examine the “norms & values” of their peers, family, and community related to underage drinking; and
2) creating opportunities, providing resources and sustaining support from the community for tribal youth to develop innovative cultural based activities that will generate new norms on alcohol consumption and lead to an increase of alcohol free lifestyles among tribal youth.
