Learning Activity: New York Standards
April is Alcohol Awareness Month. Today's problems with alcohol abuse include college students who binge drink at local bars, pregnant women who drink and put their babies at risk for fetal alcohol syndrome, professionals who drink after a long day of work; and senior citizens who drink out of loneliness.
The full extent of the destructive and pervasive manifestations of alcohol abuse and alcoholism are not typically realized until various alcoholism statistics and alcohol abuse statistics are explicitly stated.
Your ProQuest Platinum statewide subscription addresses several essential questions for critical thinking related to this enduring issue: What do you think is the greatest reason for alcohol abuse and why? How can you recognize that you or a family member are abusing alcohol? What are some successful programs that help people avoid problem drinking?
