ALCOHOL & the FIRE SERVICE
Development and Testing of the Fire Service Drinking Toolkit
The US Fire Service has one of the highest rates of heavy and binge drinking in the nation. NDRI-USA scientists have partnered with Dr. Raul Caetano of the Pacific Institute of Research and Evaluation (PIRE) to develop a psychoeducation intervention to encourage healthy drinking among firefighters. We are also beta testing the intervention to examine its impact.
