COMMUNITIES MOBILIZING FOR CHANGE ON ALCOHOL is a program designed to activate the citizenry of communities to achieve changes in local public policies and changes in the practices of major community institutions, including law enforcement, community events, churches, schools, and local media.

CMCA Using the scale for Perceived Risk of Drug Use and Parental Attitudes for Drug Use, Harper County will reduce baselines using data from more reliable 2009 survey results. Questions described in measure below* (Organize the community efforts to change policies and practices on ways to reduce access to alcohol by adults, thereby reducing teen drinking and the health and social problems associated with underage drinking) Social Norms: By May 2011, reduce the proportion of youth who report that their parents would feel it was not wrong at all if youth were to drink alcohol regularly by 2% from a baseline of 3% in 2009 YEARPercentage 2007na % % % Increase of 2.15% 12 th grade students were the largest increase: % 2011—16%

CMCA Second question dealing with social norms under CMCA program: Social Norms: By May 2011, reduce the percentage of youth reporting that there is a pretty/very good change that they would be seen as cool if they began drinking regularly at least once or twice a month from a baseline of 10.7% in 2007 to 3.7% in 2011 YEARPercentage % % % % Decrease of 5%-- Interesting observation: The students with the largest amount reporting they’d be seen as cool in consistently the Junior class in Harper County.

COMMUNITY MOBILIZATION

Most: Schools, Youth Least: Local Media, Community WHICH SECTORS ARE MOST INVOLVED IN PREVENTION EFFORTS?

WHICH SECTOR IN YOUR COMMUNITY ARE UNDER-UTILIZED??? Below are the Sectors we can engage more and include in our prevention efforts over the next 10 months: We need to educate the people better so that they understand our goals and the problem we are working on. We need to provide a clearer picture of how they can help. Media- Make sure they are invited to all events, make sure more articles are submitted to papers, have them be more engaged in new coalition Community- make sure that we collaborate with the fair boards and chamber of commerce and invite them to help in our efforts Government- Visit with the county commissioners, city officials and Judges to make sure that policies are where they would like for them to be and ask for assistance with new coalition and the work we are doing. Health— Become more involved in the hospitals and clinics and ask for assistance with our work and volunteer to help with their work.

WE SEEN COMMUNITY READINESS AND/OR AWARENESS CHANGE OR SHIFT AS A RESULT OF OUR EFFORTS: We now how our county law enforcement as a whole working towards more consistent punishment if the youth are caught drinking. The County Attorney along with the Police Chiefs and Sheriff Department designed a protocol that they now follow. Recently when a new restaurant opened and wanted to sell liquor near the elementary school, concerned citizens rallied to stop the license because of the location. It was discussed at the City Commission meeting and it was agreed to allow them to obtain a license but there should be no promotional signage about alcohol outside the restaurant. 200 yard signs were distributed to families during enrollment. The yards signs still stand! An annual block party event that takes place in Anthony, now makes sure that they send out a message that you must be 21 to drink at the party. We started a new prevention/wellness coalition!

KEY LEADER SUPPORT Leadership in prevention efforts takes courage!

Our key leadership comes from a core group of community that want to help the youth become strong, clear minded adults. Some of the leaders have children in school, some of them have been affected by teenage alcohol use, some have a stake in reputation of the community but they all have become leaders because they care deeply about our youth.

Next Steps! Continue implementing as many of the programs that we can throughout the county with the support of schools, churches and volunteers. Continue to grow our coalition keeping in mind the benefit of diversity within the 12 sectors. Look for additional funding. Continue reviewing our data to make sure we are targeting the areas that need to be targeted. We have all of the tools needed. Begin looking at a SPECIFIC target and work on ONE area deeply.

“ IF YOU’RE NEVER SCARED OR EMBARRASSED OR HURT, IT MEANS YOU NEVER TAKE ANY CHANCES.” “ IF YOU’RE NEVER SCARED OR EMBARRASSED OR HURT, IT MEANS YOU NEVER TAKE ANY CHANCES.” JULIA SOREL We have to be so proud of all the heroes that have been supportive of the efforts. We are proud of all the sectors and volunteers that have questioned, discussed and challenged the issue of underage drinking and to those that helped change policies and assist in prevention events that take place. I am most proud of the ICC, HCHC, Schools, Churches, Volunteers, Law Enforcement, all volunteer workers! “A hero is an ordinary individual who finds strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles” Christopher Reeves

THE MOST SIGNIFICANT LESSON LEARNED This is REALLY HARD WORK!!!!!! It is coming to the realization that you have to make people feel uncomfortable before they will change.
