"Buying for someone under 21?" concept
"Buying for someone under 21?" concept
The messages below were created as "social norming" messages, designed to change people's perceptions about what they might be about to do, by coalition members, including representatives from Jeffco Schools, The Conflict Center, Jefferson County Public Health and Jefferson Center. We know that these will not immediately stop people from buying alcohol for children, but the goal is to make it seem less acceptable.
The Policy & Substance Availability workgroup is creating plans to invite Jefferson County alcohol retailers to participate in a distributing these messages in a program that will include the following components:
- Inform:
Display window clings/posters/ use bags, rotating messages quarterly.
Place bottle hangers/ stickers and/or use bags with messages.
- Share best practices:
Share, via 2 surveys, best practices with other retailers for preventing shoplifting, shoulder taps in the parking lot, use of fake IDs and any other methods you used for preventing underage alcohol availability.
