☀️ Summer Smart: Stay Safe & Alcohol-Free

Summer is about memories — not risky choices.

📊 Did you know?
• 32.9% of teens ages 12–20 report trying alcohol at least once.
• 23% of high school students reported drinking alcohol in the past 30 days.
• Alcohol contributes to about 4,000 deaths each year among people under 21 in the U.S.

5 Summer Tips to Stay Alcohol-Free:

🌴 Choose your crew wisely
Hang with friends who respect your choices and support healthy fun.

📱 Have an exit plan
Always have a trusted adult or safe ride contact ready.

🏐 Stay active
Sports, beach days, volunteering, gaming nights, and creative projects keep summer exciting without alcohol.

🗣️ Practice saying no
A simple “I’m good” or “Not my thing” works.

💧 Protect your future
Teen brains are still developing. Alcohol can affect memory, judgment, and decision-making.

Be present. Be safe. Be YOU.
