Cheers! You deserve a round of applause! Congratulations for making the smart and healthy choice to not drink alcohol underage. We know that adolescence can be a difficult time filled with peer pressure and opportunities for risky behavior. Please understand that by making the choice to resist underage drinking, you’re serving as a leader and a source of inspiration to many of your fellow schoolmates – whether they’ll admit it or not. And since you're already making smart choices, you get to skip a few pages in the survey, too!
