Description

Toxic drinking is an epidemic on campuses all across America. It means consuming so much alcohol the drinker passes out. But while "sleeping it off," the victim may be quietly dying. When you come right down to it, it's a problem that only students can tackle. The Red Watch Band movement is designed to end alcohol overdose deaths by teaching students how to handle alcohol emergencies and summon professional help. 

FREE food at the training!!! 

Every student who completes the course will receive a certificate and an actual red watch to wear as a symbol of their knowledge. 

This training is open to all UMBC students. Please register on this page if you plan on attending so that we have an accurate head-count. An additional training date will be held on:
