In this seminar, the speakers will deliver a valuable summary of the document and discuss its resource value to all segments of the justice community.

Reducing Underage Drinking: Research and Information for Judges on Harm Reduction and Prevention Initiatives.
Judges and justice community leaders are key players in community-wide efforts to emphasize the risks associated with underage drinking and related motor vehicle offenses. Judges may assume leadership roles on these issues in their community without impeding judicial independence. Prevention initiatives related to underage drinking and DUI offer promising outcomes but require continuing research and evaluation to determine their success and to improve their effectiveness.
No one sanction or strategy is successful unless used in combination with other measures. Our program will look at a range of responses applied by the justice community to address underage alcohol problems and hear from researchers about the most successful initiatives and why they appear to be effective.

How have budget cuts influenced the Court’s capacity to process underage alcohol cases?
States across the country are responding to the current budget crisis by implementing a number of cost-saving measures and state courts are called upon to assume part of the burden of these reductions. Responses range from personnel layoffs to a curtailed docket as well as the elimination of programming. Multnomah County Courts and the Multnomah County Department of Community Justice (Adult and Juvenile Divisions) have embraced prevention as an effective response to the underage drinking cases that come before the court. The effective data driven strategies developed by the county to address underage alcohol cases have been curtailed or eliminated due to budget cuts. Our faculty will explore how the Courts and Department of Community Justice of Multnomah County have responded to their budget cuts and measure the impact of the cuts on their underage alcohol strategy.
