Research shows that a brief, non-judgmental conversation about the effects of alcohol use and pregnancy can be very effective in motivating a woman’s decision about alcohol use and pregnancy.
The Prevention Conversation was developed to increase awareness and prevention in our adult population of childbearing age, 18-45 years. This training is focused on how to have these brief, non-judgmental conversations.
The Adolescent Project will increase education and awareness through train-the-trainer programs for professionals and volunteers who work with adolescent populations and through conversations with the adolescent population or directly to adolescents, specifically those 12-18 years old.
