Choices Granted!
August 17, 2018
Central received a $30,000 NCAA CHOICES Grant to integrate athletics into campus-wide efforts to reduce alcohol abuse. The grant supports projects that partner athletics with other campus departments to develop campus-wide alcohol-education projects that encourage personal alcohol-related choices that are legal, healthy, appropriate and safe.
With the help of the grant, the college plans to integrate alcohol education into its core curriculum, partner with Pella on alcohol abuse prevention, engage student-athletes in educational workshops, expand its Mentors in Violence Prevention training and more.
