Join SAMHSA for the 2016 Communities Talk: Town Hall Meetings to Prevent Underage Drinking

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) invites you to join in the 2016 Communities Talk: Town Hall Meetings to Prevent Underage Drinking initiative. SAMHSA has sponsored Communities Talk: Town Hall Meetings every two years since 2006 to raise awareness about underage and harmful drinking and to mobilize communities across the country to take actions that we know can and do save lives.

Help continue the downward trend in underage drinking and alcohol abuse by planning one or more Communities Talk events. A limited number of $500 stipends are available to support your event, which can take a range of forms—from small community gatherings to larger events on a college campus.  Stipends are being distributed on a first-come, first-served basis.

Please contact info@stopalcoholabuse.net with the name of your organization, contact name, e-mail address, and phone number by Friday, June 30.  They will expedite your invitation to register once we receive your request.

Visit the Communities Talk: Town Hall Meetings website and check out the tips and resources and success stories for creative ideas on how to get started. Download this flyer to learn more.
