Description
This full color, illustrated 8 page booklet provides a complete overview of important alcohol prevention topics. The booklet warns readers that alcohol is an addictive and physically damaging drug. Short term effects begin with a single drink. The long term health damage caused by excessive drinking is described. Women are warned that drinking can produce fetal alcohol syndrome — a leading cause of mental retardation in children. It also stresses the potentially fatal hazards of binge drinking and drunk driving. Alcoholism is defined, its symptoms are described, and readers are provided suggestions on where to seek help for a drinking problem.
