Messages are submitted by student groups and selected by members of the Underage Drinking Prevention Workgroup and communication professionals to be produced for television and radio. These announcements are sent to each television and radio station in WV and distributed to other community prevention professionals. If you would like to utilize these commercials to have a discussion about underage drinking, feel free to use this Discussion Guide.  If you have other questions or need more information regarding underage alcohol use in WV please contact Stephanie Anthony.
