Family Talk About Drinking
Recognizing that parents have the greatest influence on their children's decisions about drinking, the Family Talk program helps prevent underage drinking by encouraging open, honest communication between parents and children. Developed by an advisory panel of education, family counseling, child psychology and alcohol treatment professionals, the Family Talk parent guide is available in five languages - English, Spanish, Chinese, Korean and Vietnamese. Six and a half million copies have been distributed free to parents and educators by Anheuser-Busch and its nationwide network of wholesalers. Videos are available in Spanish and English.

Operation ID
To further strengthen our commitment to being part of the solution to underage drinking, Anheuser-Busch and its distributors offer retailers training and a variety of materials that help them check and verify valid IDs. These materials include pocket-size "We I.D. Cards" (available in English, Spanish and Korean) that list tips on how to spot fake IDs; driver license booklets that feature photos of valid driver licenses from all 50 states and the Canadian provinces; and wristbands that retailers can use to identify customers who have already shown proof of legal age. TIPS training also includes techniques for checking and identifying valid IDs.

Prevent. Don't Provide
According to the 2003 National Academy of Sciences Report, two-thirds of teens who drink report getting alcohol from their parents or other adults. Prevent. Don’t Provide recognizes the important role parents and other adults play in the fight against underage drinking. The program challenges adults to “Think Again” if they believe it’s acceptable to buy alcohol for teens or provide it to them at parties. The National Fatherhood Initiative and the International Association of Fire Chiefs are supporters of this campaign.
