Alcohol Server Training
EUDL developed a two-hour PowerPoint training, Responsible Beverage Server Training
Project
, with the assistance of the retail industry, law enforcement and educators. Created
for on-premise and off-premise location point-of-sale employees, this training may be
adapted to meet individual business and law enforcement agency needs. This training is
certified by the State of Nevada, thereby meeting the mandatory criteria required in state
law.

College Campus Strategy
"Choice Driven" initiated by the University of Nevada, Reno, is the result of a collective
effort with student services program and the Department of Intercollegiate Activities. The
focus is to encourage healthy, responsible and appropriate decisions by providing
statistics, educational information and alternatives so students and faculty make the
decision within themselves to be positively "Choice Driven." Participants sign a pledge and
receive a wristband that they will be "Choice Driven."  

EUDL Community Assistance
EUDL staff provide on site technical assistance to local communities to review current
underage drinking challenges, and assist in creating effective prevention intervention,
and law enforcement strategies, including the review of current local policies and
ordinances.

REDUCING UNDERAGE DRINKING COMMUNITY-DRIVEN STRATEGIES

Community Tool Kit
This kit is designed to educate parents and communities about the legal ramifications as
well as the health and safety risks involved in mixing teens with alcohol.

Community Based agencies may use the materials together to support a community wide
initiative, or individually as part of a parent education project, or bother specific needs.

All material is reproducible and is available in Spanish and English.

Juvenile Conference Committee Model (JCC)
Alternative Juvenile Hearings such as the JCC offers a way to return control of minor
juvenile misbehavior to the community, by developing relationships between Law
enforcement, our judicial system, and members of the community.   Implementation of a
JCC designed to meet the needs of specific jurisdictions is available at no expense.

Law Enforcement Operations
Over 95% of local law enforcement agencies in Nevada are involved in one or more of the
following strategies to reduce underage drinking:

  • Alcohol Sale to Minors Compliance Checks
  • Third Party Purchasers and Shoulder Tap Operations
  • Control Manufacturing, Distribution and Use of Fake Identification
  • Controlled Juvenile Party Dispersal
  • Reduce Alcohol Theft by Juveniles
  • Reduce Juvenile DUI
  • Special Events Control

School Athletic and Activities Alcohol Use Policy
Through a partnership with the Nevada Interscholastic Activities Association (NIAA), a
statewide recommended procedure was developed to address alcohol and other drug use
by school athletes (
NIAA informational brochure). This project includes a brief educational
video for athletes and parents presenting the most recent information on underage
drinking and an overview of the policy. The policy uses graduated sanctions for first,
second and third offenses.

Schools implementing the policy also receive an educational video and a 10' x 4' Stand
Tall vinyl banner demonstrating the school's commitment to reducing underage drinking.

Youth Diversion Project
This project was designed to create an "officer friendly" citation procedure, and a
diversion initiative that is administrative, thereby deterring future penetration into the
juvenile court system. Juvenile offenders receive a mandatory alcohol assessment and in-
class alcohol education program, and any other sanctions implied by the court. Costs will
vary based upon location of implementation. The program is also available in Spanish.
Currently available in Clark County only, but training and technical assistance in the
implementation of a Diversion Project designed to meet the specific needs of other
jurisdictions is available at no expense.
