Older programs required eight or more sessions to provide effective pevention results. The ALC does it in one.        __________________ Click on this image from the award winning documentary “Smashed” to view a 3 minute clip of Dr. D. describing the theory powering the Alcohol Literacy Challenge™  Cost Effective Youth Alcohol Prevention & Media Literacy now in a Single Lesson Click on this chart to compare popular classroom & computer based alcohol prevention interventions. Weigh for yourself the behavioral outcomes, the  quality of research supporting  them, and their cost per  student. Then consider  the amount of school  time needed to implement  each program. No other  curricula comes close to the  ALC in cost-effectiveness. The ALC Works Across All Cultures The ALC is designed to challenge the unique alochol expectancies and perceived media portrayals of drinking held by each participating student. This allows it to be used across different populations and cultural groups with the same efficacy. Because the specific beliefs of the students receiving the curricula are challenged during an ALC lesson, the curricula automatically morphs to become culturally specific to each group of students to whom the lesson is taught.       Tuesday, May 6 12 Noon EST - 9 AM PST Click on this link to register for the  Applying Alcohol Expectancy Theory In Youth Prevention Webinar Registration Earn 2 Prevention CEUs from the New Mexico Credentialing Board for Behavioral Health Professionals, which are accepted for licensing in 45 states (Everywhere except Alaska, Maine, Montana, North Dakota & Wyoming). ___________ The Alcohol Literacy Challenge™ has been reviewed by NREPP   Key findings from NREPP's Review   Compared to students in control groups, those receiving the Alcohol Literacy Challenge™ had significant decreases in: Average estimated BAC Average number of drinks consumed in one sitting Peak number of drinks consumed in one sitting Average number of drinking days per week   Strong Quality of Research Rating   NREPP gave the reserach proving the effectiveness of the ALC a 3.3 rating on a scale of zero to four. Few NREPP reviewed programs have their reserach rated this high.     Easy to Teach   The ALC recieved a 3.5 rating on a scale of zero to four in Readiness for Dissemination.
