Choices About Alcohol is a brief alcohol abuse prevention and harm reduction program for college-enrolled students involving interactive journaling. The program involves two 90-minute, facilitated classes. Throughout Choices About Alcohol, students are presented with information, and then they are able to reflect on what they have learned as it relates to their choices about drinking in their personal journals. Choices About Alcohol is presented in a non-confrontational manner that enables students to make their own decisions about alcohol consumption. Because the central focus of Choices About Alcohol is to help students make informed choices, the journal is set up to provide participants with information, and then they are asked to apply what they have learned in a series of self-reflective questions.
