During the last 1 years, nearly fifty students, staff, faculty and community members working together as a task force, volunteered their time and expertise to develop these goals, strategies and action plans. This document is an effort to encourage healthy lifestyle choices, including low risk use of alcohol and the reduction of high risk behaviors related to drinking. The Task Force has utilized extensive research, anecdotal information, health data, and the invaluable feedback of students and professionals in education, law enforcement and health care, to arrive at a number of suggested initiatives. This comprehensive plan will require an ongoing, long term institutional commitment. If we are to truly foster a healthier campus environment and community for students, these recommendations must be integrated into the mainstream practices of all departments on campus, as well as committed agencies and businesses in Eau Claire.
