Stay mindful of alcohol’s adverse effects on health this fall

The arrival of the fall season turns the spotlight on several alcohol-related topics. Many college and university students are already back in school, where campus life can influence drinking behaviors. September is both Recovery Month and Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD) Awareness Month. These observances are followed by Sober October, which is part of the sober curious movement.
