The Livingston County Community Alliance (LCCA) partnered with the Livingston County Sheriff’s Office to conduct 125 alcohol compliance checks over the summer; 119 of the retailers visited by underage purchasers checked for identification and refused service. This means that Livingston County continues to average a 95% compliance rate among retailers, and businesses that sold to a minor have taken immediate action to improve communication and training among their staff.
The LCCA partners with community agencies to reduce and prevent youth substance use which includes underage drinking, nicotine use, marijuana use, and prescription/non–prescription medications. Alcohol compliance checks are an evidence–based strategy to reduce the number of sales to minors. Local businesses were provided with a packet of resources to help spot fake IDs and raise awareness of the changes in Michigan driver’s licenses.
With the dedication of local businesses refusing to sell alcohol to underage people, the Livingston County community can avoid the problems that come with underage drinking. If you are interested in being a part of local prevention efforts, visit www.drugfreelivingston.com or email Megan Crainer at Livingston.community.alliance@gmail.com. General coalition meetings occur on the second Tuesday of every month.
