No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This project provides stepped care to college students mandated for alcohol-related offenses. Students are first provided with a minimal intervention, a 15-minute discussion of their alcohol use. Students who continue to drink in a risky manner are provided with a more intensive, hour-long brief motivational interview. By providing more intensive treatment to the students who exhibit risky drinking, we hope to maximize the efficiency of campus alcohol programs.
