Everyone can benefit from learning more about at-risk drinking behaviors, alcohol abuse, and dependence, if not for yourself, then for someone you care about. Studies show that nearly one third of adults engage in at-risk drinking patterns and may not even know it. National Alcohol Screening Day (NASD) provides individuals with the opportunity to assess the affect of alcohol on their health, as well as its role in their lives.

 This assessment is critical to safeguard our own health, in addition to our friends and loved ones.
