Community Mobilizing for Change on Alcohol (CMCA)
Communities Mobilizing for Change on Alcohol (CMCA) is a community organizing effort designed to reduce adolescent's (13 to 20 years of age) access to alcohol by changing community policies and practices.
Environmental theory suggests that there are three critical components to environmental strategies of prevention:
-
limit access;
-
change social norms;
-
increase the negative consequences associated with use.
The program, developed by the University of Minnesota's Alcohol Epidemiology program, seeks to effectively limit access to alcohol for people under the legal drinking age and to communicate a clear message to the community that underage drinking is inappropriate and unacceptable.
The CMCA program provides a comprehensive set of environmental interventions and employs a range of social-organizing techniques to address legal, institutional, social, and health issues.
Numerous publications can also be found on the University of Minnesota Alcohol Epidemiology Program website.
