Description

Abstract
Studies indicate an increase in underage drinking by youths in hamilton county, ohio. A student survey report by preventionfirst (2022), conducted on 5,195,7TH-12TH grade students, attending schools in hamilton county ohio indicates that past 30-day use was 14.1%, the perception of harm was 72.6%, parental disapproval was 81.3% while friend disapproval was 61.2%. The report indicated that alcohol was the most abused by youths in hamilton county in 2022 but had one of the least perceptions of harm which underscored the limited impact of existing interventions and their effectiveness on existing service models and interventions. This study and other related findings indicate a serious GAP in the planning, funding, coordination, and implementation of service delivery for african americans residing in this inner-city community. Exclusive services (ES), the fiscal agent of the cincinnati for hope (healthy outcomes through prevention efforts) coalition intends to address the considerable unmet need for underage alcohol prevention at the community level by increasing access to information, enhancing skills, providing support, enhance access/reduce barriers change consequences, change the physical design and modify/change policies. This project will be achieved by addressing norms regarding alcohol use by youths, reducing opportunities for underage drinking, creating changes in underage drinking enforcement efforts, addressing penalties for underage use and reducing negative consequences associated with underage drinking, increasing community collaboration, hosting online and in-person events in schools and community, organizing workshops on underage alcohol prevention, implementing evidence-based underage alcohol prevention curriculum in schools, etc. This project aims to reduce alcohol use among youth and young adults ages 12-20 in nine (9) neighborhoods in the city of cincinnati, hamilton county, ohio which include avondale, corryville, evanston, fairview-clifton heights, MT. Auburn, over-the-rhine, walnut hills, west end, and queensgate. Some of the objectives of this project are to strengthen its capacity to improve its delivery of alcohol abuse prevention programming as measured by a 50% increased capacity in preventing alcohol abuse use among youth in middle and high schools in the city of cincinnati by september 29, 2027, to decrease 30-day alcohol use among african americans aged 12 to 20 living in ohio health improvement zone in the city of cincinnati, hamilton county in the state of ohio by september 29, 2027, etc the strategies and activities designed during our proposed effort are expected to: (1) strengthen our infrastructure and mobilize resources at the community level so that we can effectively address the health crisis caused by underage drinking; (2) become prepared to offer evidence-based underage alcohol prevention and treatment services through planning and capacity building processes; (3) develop initiatives to address underage alcohol prevention and intervention services that are well structured and supported by scientific evidence; (4) to gain knowledge and expertise necessary to replicate this initiative in similar communities throughout ohio health improvement zone, particularly in the city of cincinnati.
