Make healthy choices about alcohol. If you don’t, there are consequences.

To drive home the message above, the DVDs will be distributed statewide. In addition the campaign will be broadcast on KVUE-TV in Austin and on regional television stations across the state in the coming months. This campaign is made possible by IIAT, the Texas PTA and Tara Energy.

Why is this project needed?

• 60 percent of 15-16 year olds report drinking.
• The average age of the first alcoholic drink in Texas is 12 years old.
• Every day in the U. S. more than 5,000 kids under 16 take their first drink of alcohol.
• 75 percent of high school students in Texas have had at least one alcoholic drink.
• 30,000 young people each year need treatment for acute alcohol poisoning.
• Underage alcohol use costs this country $53 billion per year mostly in the form of traffic fatalities and violent incidents.
