Project Sticker Shock
Project Sticker Shock is a public awareness campaign that aims to discourage adults who may purchase alcohol legally and provide it to minors. Stickers are placed on multi- packs of beer, alco-pops, and other alcohol products that appeal to underage drinkers.
Community Impact
The real impact of the Sticker Shock project is that once the alcohol is stickered, of age people purchasing alcohol will think twice about providing alcohol to minors. This project also raises awareness of constructing laws on a larger scale, particularly through media coverage of your activities. The impact of the stickers is increased by media coverage of the event and by the signs that are displayed by participating retailers.
Instead of just raising awareness of selling alcohol to underage persons, it encourages youth to take the lead whenever possible.
