Deterra
The HPW Coalition distributes Deterra drug disposal bags within Alachua County in partnership with local agencies to reduce access to prescription medication and raise awareness about the dangers of prescription drug misuse. Each biodegradable pouch can dispose of pills along with liquids and patches. Reach out to HPW to learn more about how you can get access to Deterra bags for free.
Compliance Checks
HPW partners with Florida Alcohol Beverage and Tobacco as well as local law enforcement to conduct periodic compliance checks with youth. During this process, youth try to purchase alcohol underage and determine if their IDs will be properly checked by bartenders or liquor store clerks. Businesses that fail compliance checks are given notices and encouraged to complete Responsible Vendor Trainings. HPW is always looking for youth volunteers to participate in this activity!
Sticker Shock

 Designed as an educational campaign, HPW places stickers with information that might not be well known or could be “shocking” to the community on beer cases and liquor. Posters and handouts with the same information are placed on locations such as liquor store windows to spread awareness. Topics can cover social hosting laws and statistics on underage drinking. Please contact HPW if you know of a liquor store that would want to get involved in this campaign!
