Think and Decide: Can You Afford It?


The mission of the Community Alcohol Coalition is to create awareness about the dangers of underage and binge drinking and how it affects everyone. The impact of the consequences creates a ripple effect. Whether you are a middle school, high school, or college student ... out in the work force ... are a parent ... are an owner of a liquor store or bar ... the question is: Can You Afford it?

Underage & Binge Drinkers: The thrill of drinking often outweighs any consideration of the consequences. We get that. You're young, invincible, and want to do what you want to do. We urge you to THINK the Drink Through - play the whole tape through of what could happen. Can You Afford It?

Parents: Please do not condone or enable your child's underage and binge drinking. Being the cool parent can result in legal problems, hefty fines, possible imprisonment, loss of home, and loss of career. As the responsible adult, you will be held responsible. Can You Afford It?

Liquor Store / Bar Owners: Please be diligent in checking IDs of patrons. One false move could result in losing your livelihood, legal problems, fines, and more. Can You Afford It?   

If you yourself have not yet experienced
any negative consequences while drinking,
you probably know someone who has ...
please feel free to share your
"I Knew Someone Who ..."
story, poetry, artwork, music, or videos via email: canyouaffordit@gmail.com.
We will not use your name or identify you in any way.
