Lt. Governor James R. “Duke” Aiona Jr. announced through a press release, the issuing of Tagalog and Ilokano language translations of the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism publication on underage drinking, “Make a Difference: Talk to Your Child About Alcohol.”
The brochure, also available in English, is geared towards parents and guardians of young people ages 10 n 14, and contains valuable information on the dangers of underage drinking. It also provides parents guidance on how to discuss underage drinking issues with their children, and offers specific strategies on how to keep children alcohol free.
“Parents have tremendous impact on their children’s values and behavior. We are glad to support them with this resource which can help them influence their children’s decision not take alcohol or drugs.,” Aiona said.
Production of the brochure was funded by the Federal Substance Abuse Prevention and Treatment Block Grant, which is administered by the State Department of Health’s Alcohol and Drug Abuse Division.
