Abstract:
Project Northland has been in progress since 1991. In this article the project investigators summarize the five strategies used during phase II, which targeted high school students' access to alcohol and worked to change community norms. The authors discuss lessons learned from working in the community on the topic of teen alcohol use and give preliminary outcomes of the project.
