Underage Drinking: It’s Everybody’s Problem – Research

The Px2010 initiative is fully informed by the relevant research literature on evidence-based practices, in particular: (1) Reducing Underage Drinking: A Collective Responsibility (a 2004 publication of the National Academies of Sciences), (2) the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) Center for Substance Abuse Prevention guidelines for environmental prevention, and (3) the New York State Office of Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Services (OASAS) underage drinking strategies. The Px2010 initiative utilizes these evidence-based approaches in an informed, sophisticated, and innovative manner.
