Alcohol and Drug Education Program

The Alcohol and Drug Education Program utilizes a comprehensive approach to addressing alcohol and other drug-related problems at Boston College and in the surrounding community. We encourage the university community to join with us through task forces and coalitions to employ multiple strategies including: 

• providing education
• changing the normative environment
• promoting alcohol-free social options
• reducing alcohol availability
• developing alcohol policies and increasing the consistency of enforcement
• reducing the marketing of alcohol
• conducting early intervention
• providing treatment
