COMMUNITY PROGRAMS
Substance misuse prevention, physical activities, nutritional education and many other programs support healthy life choices for youth and families and a better community.
How holiday toasts can turn tragic. Blood alcohol concentration (BAC) level. Mild impairment – 0.00-0.05%. Increased impairment – 0.06-0.15%. Severe impairment – 0.16-0.30%. Life threatening – 0.31-0.45%.
Many of us look forward to celebrations during the holidays, yet it is also a time when some people are more likely to drink beyond their limits than at other times of the year. Some people will experience adverse consequences that range from fights to falls to traffic crashes.
Despite the potential dangers, myths about drinking persist, which –for some– can prove fatal. Scientific studies supported by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism provide important information that challenges these widespread, yet incorrect, beliefs about how quickly alcohol affects the body and how long the effects of drinking last.
