June 22, 2023

Click here to watch the video produced from CAHS’ “Sticker Shock” event, held April 19, at the Oak Point Fresh Market in Central.

The event was part of a three-year public awareness campaign being conducted in CAHS’ seven-parish region. The campaign warns that it is illegal to purchase alcohol for persons under 21 and features signage and posters in stores, as well as a television ad and social media outreach.

The penalties for buying alcohol for persons under 21 include arrest, jail, fines, and loss of driver’s license.
