Violence/Alcohol Education and Prevention
UNI has placed a great deal of resources toward prevention and education initiatives relating to violence and alcohol use in the college setting. These initiatives range from programming and training, to awareness campaigns, speakers and events.
If you are interested in having a program, presentation or training session for your group, we can provide this service from what we have developed, or we will tailor the content to best meet the needs of your group.
To schedule a program, presentation, training session, or just to gain further information, please contact Mark Rowe-Barth, Substance Abuse Services Coordinator, or 319-273-3423.
