The 1st Draft of the Needs Assessment on Underage Drinking in Hermosa is now available for your review. It is posted at our Google Docs website. The instructions for how to access the site are in the March Archive. I can also email it to you, if you would like to post a comment here or email me.
The Assessment is currently in spreadsheet format, as required by the Illinois Department of Human Services. It is organized by "intervening variables," which are reasons why underage drinking may be occurring in Hermosa (e.g. Promotion of alcohol, Community Norms, etc.) Eventually, this spreadsheet will be reorgainzed into an easy-to-read handout or booklet that can be distributed to your agency and the community. We hope to have that available by early summer.
We will be discussing the Assessment at our Coalition Meeting this Wednesday. If you have any comments or questions, please feel free to post them here or to email me.
Thank you for all your help in gathering and providing the data that went into the Needs Assessment. This will be a truly great resource for Hermosa!
