Sponsored by the Westchester County Advisory Council on Underage Drinking, the workshop focused on parental responsibilities when hosting and sending their teens to gatherings and the legal and medical consequences that can
result when alcohol is present. D. A. Pirro and Dr. Boskey also presented a powerful educational video on alcohol and substance abuse: Dying High: Teens in the ER - filmed at White Plains Hospital Center’s Emergency Room last spring.
The Westchester County Advisory Council on Underage Drinking, a group of 15 community leaders from across Westchester, is working together in a coordinated effort to explore the causes and recommended solutions for the
underage drinking crisis. As part of their ongoing effort to educate parents and students about the dangers associated with teen drinking, the
Advisory Council will continue to sponsor future forums at area high schools across the county.
