This document presents an alcohol supplement to New York's Drug Education Curriculum. The supplement is designed to address the unique circumstances that distinguish educational strategies about alcohol from those applied to other drugs. Section I, Introduction, describes the strategy suggested by this document as being based on health promotion, risk reduction, and prevention and management of health problems. The central goal of this supplement is to discourage any alcohol use by children. Section II, New Messages about Alcohol, contains the basic philosophy and messages that comprise a comprehensive approach to alcohol education. The 15 messages in this section are categorized in four broad subject areas: (1) the drug alcohol; (2) alcohol use; (3) alcohol problems; and (4) influences on alcohol use. Section III, Classroom Activity Guide, and the bibliography, References and Resources (Appendix C), are also organized by these four areas to facilitate cross-referencing of messages with related activities and sources of information. Classroom activities are further divided by grade: primary, intermediate, and junior and senior high school. Section IV, Program and Policy Guide, includes examinations of school-based, community-based, and combined efforts to deal with driving while intoxicated prevention; identification and treatment of chemically dependent young people; parent education; and community organization. Appendices contain the National PTA resolution on alcohol and drug use by minors; definition, goals, and objectives of a local council on alcoholism and a list of local councils; and references and resources. An evaluation form is included. (NB)
