Class Action: A High School Alcohol Use Prevention Curriculum
Grades 9-12
by Cheryl L. Perry, Ph.D., Carolyn L. Williams, Ph.D., and Sara Veblen-Mortenson, M.S.W., M.P.H.
Developed by the University of Minnesota
Class Action: Grades 9-12 - A High School Alcohol Use Prevention CurriculumThis high-school component of Project Northland looks at the real-world social and legal consequences of underage alcohol use. Based on the social influences theory of behavior change, the goal of Class Action is to change the social norms around alcohol use and to change negative peer pressure into positive peer pressure. In eight to ten weekly sessions, teens are divided into six legal teams to prepare and present hypothetical civil cases in which someone has been harmed as a result of underage drinking. The six cases are Drinking and Driving on Trial, Fetal Alcohol Syndrome on Trial, Drinking and Violence on Trial, Date Rape on Trial, Drinking and Vandalism on Trial, and School Alcohol Policies on Trial.

Class Action has been shown to

  • reduce increases in alcohol use and intentions to use alcohol in high school by 33% through twelfth grade
  • reduce increases in binge drinking in high school by 50% through twelfth grade
  • reduce the purchase of alcohol by high school students in off-sale liquor outlets by 80%

The curriculum includes 42 casebooks (seven of each title), one set of six CDs, one teacher's manual with reproducible handouts in a three-ring binder, and 30 each of four parent postcards. Free Spanish translations are available for parent postcards.
