YPC Community Educator Page

Leading the Fight to Prevent Underage Drinking Youth Partnership for Change (YPC) is an alcohol prevention education program that empowers young people to raise awareness in Austin area community about the number one drug of choice for young people in Texas - alcohol. Young people will serve as community educators, sharing their knowledge through exciting community presentations and outreach activities to help peers, parents, and community members understand the real dangers and consequences of underage alcohol use.

The primary goal of YPC is to empower young people to take a leadership role in educating peers, parents, and community members on the dangers and consequences of underage alcohol use in schools and communities in Central Texas. YPC also seeks to increase the awareness in Central Texas of the underage drinking laws and the mental and physical effects that result from underage alcohol use.

YPC Community Educators are young people between the ages of 16-21, who are concerned about underage drinking and want to take action. They make presentations in Travis, Hays and Williamson counties to share why they are personally concerned about this topic and to also educate the community about the danger of underage alcohol use.
