Please Take our Parent Survey

The Lake County Health Department and Edgewood & Northwood Middle Schools are collaborating to bring resources and information about underage drinking to Edgewood & Northwood parents. Please take a few moments to fill out this valuable survey, which will help guide our efforts and better understand the needs of parents when addressing underage drinking. There is an opportunity to enter in a raffle for an Starbucks gift card for your participation.


Thank you, and we greatly appreciate your support!

Let Them Hear From You

Your teen has info about underage drinking from their friends. Now it’s time for them to hear from you. Remind them that alcohol impairs judgment and interferes with brain development. Talk with your teen about not using alcohol underage.

Embrace the Awkward

Teens like to talk about, well, everything with their peers. Sports, clothes, cars, music, and celebrities. No subject is off limits; no topic is taboo.


Alcohol is no different. It's a subject that teens will talk about, whether you realize it or not. Your teen's friends (or your teen) may have incorrect information about using alcohol while underage. Find out what your teen's been told and what they believe.
