Alcohol and Safety app for iPhone and iPad

The “Alcohol and Safety” flipchart is part of a package of resources developed for use by facilitators and educators in Indigenous community settings. The flipchart is based on an evidence based practical approach in relation to alcohol awareness. It has also been produced with information gathered during consultations associated with the Indigenous Safe Drinking Education Project 2014 report.

The feedback received during these consultations has been invaluable. The flipchart incorporates and is informed by best practice resources that have been proven to be effective in the past in the NT and other states. It also has been guided by the findings of prominent researchers in the alcohol and other drug field.

The package of resources developed include other items such as song clips and other tools that facilitators can use in a variety of settings depending on what they think is appropriate and what they think will be most effective.
The overall development of this project was guided and advised by the Indigenous Safe Drinking Education Advisory Group. This group comprised of Anthony Sievers, Bill Ivory,Jennifer Frendin, David Parfitt (NT Department of Health); Sarah Haythornthwaite (Aboriginal Medical Services Northern Territory); Joseph Fitz (Menzies School of Health Research); and Jane Alley; Veronica Thorpe; Maria Marriner (Northern Territory Department of Business).
