Welcome to ALERT Labs
ALERT stands for "Alcohol (and other drugs) Laboratories for Education, Research and Training."
ALERT provids evidence-based, "Social Norms" prevention programming and "restorative" brief interventions in high school and college settings. We work to prevent underage drinking (and other drug use ) and reduce heavy adult drinking.
Through partnerships with community coalitions, universities, high schools, recovery groups and treatment centers, we strive to help those who have or are at-risk of developing substance use disorders.
NOTE: We can consult with your organization to provide surveys, posters and programs to develop an effective, comprehensive prevention program using our materials. ALERT's program and materials have been tested and statistically proven to reduce youth use of alcohol and other drugs.
Our university work was named a "Model Program" in 2004 by the U.S. Department of Education.
