Your Actions Matter
CPAC hosted an event with Illini Central Student Council that focused on changing the behavior of adults who think it is okay to give alcohol to minors, with participating Illinois liquor retailers playing a key role. Materials were designed by teens to reinforce positive behavior. The vast majority of adults in Illinois do NOT give alcohol to minors nor do the majority of teens drink alcohol. By posting these positive materials in liquor establishments throughout Illinois, adults will be reminded that “preventing underage drinking is EVERYONE's responsibility."
