Impaired Driving Prevention Campaign Materials The BACCHUS Network™ has provided impaired driving prevention resources throughout our 30+ year history. During this time, we have witnessed the incredible growth of campus impaired driving prevention activities and the decline in deaths due to alcohol-related crashes. However, the fight against impaired driving is not over. After years of decline, impaired driving rates began to increase for every age group in 2001 and 2002. Reports from 2003 show a slight decrease in deaths caused by alcohol-related crashes, but over 17,000 people still die each year due to impaired driving. (NHTSA, 2003) To address this increase in the 18 - 24 year old age group, BACCHUS offers its affiliates an annual Impaired Driving Prevention Programming Manual and Resource Guide. Each year's campaign provides updated information and programming ideas to assist campuses in addressing the importance of educating students about the risks of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs and how to program throughout the year, to prevent impaired driving. This programming manual and the accompany prevention posters, pamphlets and programmatic giveways have been designed to help your peer education group mobilize its efforts to prevent impaired driving.
