Alcohol and Drug Abuse Education Act Amendments

Summary

Alcohol and Drug Abuse Education Act Amendments - Provides that it is the purpose of this Act to provide leadership to schools and other institutions in the community by supporting projects to identify, evaluate, demonstrate and disseminate effective drug and alcohol abuse prevention and early intervention strategies and to provide training and technical assistance to schools and other segments of the community in adapting such strategies to identified local needs. Directs the Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare to carry out a program of making grants to support and evaluate demonstration projects and to disseminate these nationally, to train educational and community personnel that have or should have an important influence on the behavior of young people and to provide technical assistance in program development. Provides that funds appropriated for grants and contracts under this Act shall be available for enumerated purposes, including: (1) comprehensive demonstration programs in school-communities which focus on the causes and affects of drug and alcohol abuse rather than the symptoms; (2) creative primary prevention and early intervention programs in schools; (3) community education programs on drug and alcohol abuse, especially for parents and others in the community; and (4) programs to recruit and train persons, including former drug and alcohol abusers, to organize programs of public education in drug and alcohol abuse. Authorizes to be appropriated to carry out the purposes of this Act $26,000,000 for fiscal year 1974; $30,000,000 for fiscal year 1975; and $34,000,000 for fiscal year 1976.
