To create a campus environment that supports students in making responsible choices, the coalition will focus our prevention efforts on reducing alcohol and substance use and high risk drinking behaviors, and increasing bystander intervention. The coalition will partner with other Truman and Kirksville community organizations and assets to achieve these goals.
