But those numbers aren\u2019t just because of drinking and driving.  Approximately 68% of these deaths are due to incidents other than traffic-related fatalities, such as alcohol poisoning, falls, and suicide.  In addition, teens who engage in underage drinking and drug use are at a higher risk for other dangers such as date rape and acts of violence.  MADD offers researched-based programs to help families protect our kids and communities.<\/p>\n \n

Here at MADD Indiana we strive to make sure many students hear, first-hand, about the dangers of alcohol from victims who share their stories of injury and loss, while empowering them to take a stand against underage drinking.  We also provide them with encouragement and practical tips for how to withstand peer pressure and make wise choices through our Power of You(th)<\/a> program.<\/p>\n \n\n

In addition, MADD offers Power of Parents<\/a> workshops to help parents understand the dangers of underage drinking and to provide them with tools to effectively communicate these dangers and their concerns to their children.  We offer parents successful techniques and resources that can help them have more productive discussions about expectations and consequences, but more importantly, open up a life-saving dialogue with their kids about alcohol and drugs.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
