Success Story Submission Request

The Enforcing Underage Drinking Enforcement Training Center would

like to invite you to submit a success story request to be featured

in a future document highlighting environmental prevention strategies

in limiting the access of alcohol to underage youth. Upon publication,

the document will be made available on our website at www.udetc.org,

distributed across the United States to nearly 7,000 people in our

database, and will receive national recognition in a variety of

ways.

In order to qualify as a success story, the following criterion

must be met:

1. A policy change has been implemented that directly relates to

underage drinking (state law, local ordinance, school policy, or

institutional policy change) such as keg registration

or

2. Efforts that show a measurable decrease in underage drinking

or access to alcohol such as compliance checks conducted by enforcement

showing a consistent trend in diminishing non-compliance rates,

thus limiting the access of alcohol to underage youth from retail

outlets or other innovative approaches.

or

3. Innovative strategies that show collaborative efforts in reducing underage drinking such as agency partnerships or use of creative technologies that result in a steady decline in access of alcohol to underage youth.

You may submit your requests to the Center with a detailed narrative

of the proposed success story via email or regular mail. Please

include supporting documents, data, and contact information. The

Center will contact you to further investigate the submission for

qualification and development. The contact information for the Center
