Stay safe, stay hydrated, and make the most of every sunny moment! 🏖️

Every number tells a story. More than 178,000 lives lost each year to excessive alcohol use in the U.S. That’s enough to fill American Family Field four times. Prevention matters.

Communities that do alcohol age compliance checks protect youth and reduce risk. 📷 #AlcoholAwarenessMonth Thank you to these Richland County businesses for passing their 2026 checks and keeping our community safe! #PartnersForPrevention #SafeCommunity

Excessive alcohol use is linked to community violence, including homicide, domestic violence, suicide, and gun violence. Reducing excessive alcohol use can help create safer communities. #AlcoholAwarenessMonth2026

Wisconsinites love to embrace the outdoors. Unfortunately, many choose to drink alcohol while using outdoor vehicles. Alcohol is a leading cause of crashes for ATVs/UTVs, snowmobiles, & boats. #AlcoholAwarenessMonth2026

In '25, ~1 person in WI died every other day & ~ 9 were injured each day in alcohol-related crashes. In RC, we are working with our partners in LE to advance solutions like compliance checks & encouraging Place of Last Drink initiatives. ⬇️excessive drinking saves lives. #AAM2026

Alcohol-related harms cost taxpayers billions each year. Here in Richland County, excessive alcohol use costs our community over $16 million annually—that’s about $891 per resident. That’s why we’re working on policies to make a difference. #AlcoholAwarenessMonth2026

We believe social hosting is rare but still happening in Richland County.📷 #goals #collaborate
Please do your part to discourage parents from allowing their kids to drink with their friends on private property. Law enforcement cannot be everywhere---we must look out for kids!

Thank you to RCHS Richland Center's Youth4Change for using their voices to create awareness and stand up for positive change in our community. These young leaders believe in health, safety, doing what’s right, and resilience—and they are putting those values into action.

Healthy lungs don’t happen by accident - they happen when a community works together. Vaping can harm developing lungs & long-term health. Our kids deserve better than addiction disguised as a trend. Let’s continue building a community where the healthy choice is the easy choice.

P4P recently contributed $1,000 as a gesture of collaboration during the Kiwanis Pancake Supper and free swim event last summer. Kiwanis organized the pancake supper and contributed $500, viewing the event as an opportunity to partner on youth-focused activities.#JodiSandwich

Youth4Change leader Mason Meyer helps decorate our 2025 Partners for Prevention tree at Rotary Lights. The colorful “Thank You” ornaments—designed by 2025 graduate Lucy Joyce—share our gratitude for a community that supports keeping youth alcohol-free.

Good things come with persistence, hard work and patience. It took us 5 years but we made it happen! #Youth4Change led the way with confidence. Citizens can now help us to get the word out & encourage people to follow the ordinance! For quit resources: https://t.co/844tgo6jUu
