You’re Invited to the 2008 Regional
Forums
What is a Regional Forum?
Regional Forums are opportunities for communities to get equipped with
information and tools needed to collaboratively create change at local,
regional, and state levels.
Texans Standing Tall is partnering with community coalitions and organizations
across the state to hold Regional Forums.
The Forums are focused on preventing youth alcohol use with the ultimate goal of reducing youth substance abuse.
Why focus on alcohol?
Alcohol is the number one drug of choice for youth. Research shows that youth
that are heavy drinkers are more likely to use illicit drugs.
Preventing youth alcohol use is a step in preventing other substance abuse.
