********** CANCELLED *********

This multimedia film presentation is designed to help you see first-hand how alcohol affects teens. You will also learn why alcohol seems to harm younger brains more profoundly than older ones, both in short term and long term, brain’s plasticity, impairing memory, coordination and motivation and causing addiction. This video delivers a strong caution to teens considering any use of alcohol. 

Each video is approximately 22 minutes with focused learning that is aged appropriately for grades 5-9, and 7-College aged youth from Human Relations Media. Human Relations Media produces relevant and compelling videos about the lives, choices, issues, health and well-being of today’s teenagers. Working with leading experts in the field, these videos are developed, written and produced by their own staff.
