Preventing Student Alcohol Abuse Among Athletes (PS4A) project - The Birmingham Bloomfield Community Coalition (BBCC) plans to implement the Preventing Student Alcohol Abuse Among Athletes (PS4A) project. Through the PS4A project, BBCC will review and improve high school athletic codes of conduct, provide prevention information to school athletic departments, increase awareness about the athletic codes of conduct and harms of underage drinking, and increase resiliency within the high school student athlete population. The STOP Act Grant proposal consists of four main components: review and improve upon the high school athletic codes of conduct as needed; provide prevention information to the schools, athletic directors and coaches; increase awareness about the harms of underage drinking to the student athletes; and increase resiliency within the high school student athlete population. The objectives of this STOP Act Grant proposal are to: 1) review and improve upon the high school athletic codes of conduct as needed; 2) provide prevention information to the schools, athletic directors and coaches; 3) increase awareness with the high school student athletes and their parents, health providers, and the faith-based community; 4) encourage parent protective behaviors and parent networking; 5) decrease risk and increase resiliency among the student athlete high school population; 6) target information and education sessions to coincide with the high school sports seasons.
