Interview Q&A
How long have you been in business?
Created in 2000 under Communities in Action, changed to Underage Drinking Taskforce in 2005, rebranded in 2009 to incorporate post secondary education and address youth binge drinking on college campuses. Became a 501c3 in 2011.
What is your primary product or service?
Educating the community on the impact alcohol has on the adolescent brain, policy resource for government agencies on the best alcohol practices for their community, and building relationship with local law enforcement agencies to complete compliance checks at retail stores.
How did you first become interested in your line of business? (if owner) - What is your background? (If owner or store manager)
I had the opportunity to attend an Enforcing Underage Drinking Laws convention where I was exposed to community coalitions that were making a difference in their communities relating to youth risky behavior with alcohol. Reviewing t the Cobb County Student Health Survey in 2000 I discovered that Cobb County youth were drinking more than any other county in the State of GA.
How do you differentiate yourself from other businesses in your category and area?
We are the only 501c3 in Cobb County addressing underage drinking and youth binge drinking.
How many locations do you have and do you have plans to expand?
Only one location and there are plans to broaden our prevention landscape to include tobacco and other drugs.
