Alcohol & the Brain Roadmap

Students will examine the effects of alcohol on the adolescent brain, identifying how it disrupts neurotransmitters and neural pathways. By engaging in discussion, hands-on activity, and assessment, they will gain science-backed reasons to make informed decisions.

Adolescents are particularly vulnerable to alcohol’s impact on developing brains. This lesson equips students with neuroscience-based insights to understand risks and make healthy choices, supporting prevention and informed decision-making.
