TOOLKIT: Alcohol Awareness Month

Drinking too much alcohol increases people’s risk of injuries, violence, drowning, liver disease, and some types of cancer. The good news? We can all do our part to prevent alcohol misuse or abuse. Alcohol Awareness Month is a chance to spread the word about strategies for preventing the misuse or abuse of alcohol.

With this and other National Health Observance toolkits offered on MyHealthfinder, we’ve made it easier for you to make a difference. The toolkits provide resources for organizations like schools, health care providers, health departments, and more to raise awareness about critical public health issues, like the health risks of alcohol.
