OVERVIEW OF SERVICES

Partnership in The Alcohol Prevention Coalition offers access to research and advisory services (including educational forums, research briefings, and expert consultation) to assist student affairs professionals in effectively addressing high-risk drinking. An overview of services is provided below.

	Annual Research Summit Each year, at no cost to your institution, Coalition partners convene to hear our latest research findings, discuss implications, and address challenges with colleagues from across the country. Partners take from the Summit new insights, fresh perspectives, and best practices that can be put to immediate use on their campuses.
	On-Campus Briefings Once a year, at your convenience, Outside The Classroom experts bring our most relevant and meaningful research findings to an audience of your choosing. Briefings generate productive discussion among team members to focus your prevention planning efforts and guide future programming and policy development.
	Professional Development Institute read more The Institute is a unique leadership development program combining self-reflection, interactive dialogue, and practical application of learned skills in an engaging learning environment. Participants leave the Institute with a personal action plan, an enhanced network of supportive, diverse campus leaders, and a NASPA Certificate in Alcohol Prevention Leadership.
