Florida's Kids and Alcohol
Since 2005, FLORIDA’S KIDS & ALCOHOL has addressed the issue of underage drinking in the state of Florida. The town hall series provides an in-depth discussion with parents, teachers, officials, and youth on the harmful effects. Designed to increase community awareness, the yearly discussion includes ideas for preventing youth from using alcohol.
Florida’s Kids and Alcohol continues as an Up Close with Cathy Unruh special episode. Host Cathy Unruh sits down with local experts and teens to discuss the trends and facts of alcohol and drug use.
