Preventing Underage Drinking Initiative 2020-2021 Grant uri icon

abstract

  • The Preventing Underage Drinking Initiative seeks to prevent youth access to alcohol by implementing environmental strategies in Pitt County. For this particular year, we will be focusing on conducting environmental scans at all alcohol retail outlets in the county. The goal of these observations is to explore physical and environmental characteristics of the outlets for overall trends. Additionally, we will explore the associations between these observations and the outcomes of the alcohol purchase surveys conducted over the past 3 years. In addition to environmental scans, we will be analyzing the alcohol purchase survey data in Pitt County over the last 3 years to determine if any associations exist in the demographics (age, gender, and race/ethnicity) of the purchaser and the retail merchant.
