Stephanie Anthony (Underage Drinking Prevention Specialist) and Biddy Bostic
(Synar Compliance Specialist) have begun a joint alcohol and tobacco merchant
education project. The purpose of the project is to provide community
organizations with information and tips to pass on to retailers to reduce sales
of alcohol and tobacco to underage customers, thus limiting the retail access of
these products to youth. If your organization is interested in
participating please contact Stephanie Anthony.
