Town Hall Meeting: Preventing Underage Drinking
As part of an effort to increase
awareness of underage drinking and its consequences, Highlands Academy of Arts & Design will host a
student-led Town Hall Meeting from 6 to 7:30 p.m. Thursday, March 18, in the
school's cafeteria.
The entire community is encouraged
to attend this important meeting, featuring members of the Friday Night Live
program. California Friday Night Live (FNL) was developed in 1984. It began as a
pilot program dedicated to reducing the number of deaths and injuries caused by
teen motorists driving under the influence of alcohol and other
drugs.
Organizers say the Town Hall Meeting
is an opportunity for parents, students, and other community members to address
this critical issue that continues to be a leading public health problem all
across the country.
The evening will include a panel
discussion, and the results of an on-campus survey on underage drinking.
