Alcohol and Drug Abuse Education Amendments

Summary

Alcohol and Drug Abuse Education Amendments - Amends the Alcohol and Drug Abuse Education Act to emphasize prevention of alcohol and drug abuse in stating congressional purpose and to expand the focus of the Act to include "approaches" to the prevention of alcohol and drug abuse rather than limiting the scope to curricula. Authorizes grants to State and local educational agencies and other nonprofit agencies to establish demonstration projects for determining the most effective methods of alcohol and drug abuse prevention. Requires that at least 25 percent of such grant money for demonstration projects be used for programs in rural areas.
