Every 15 Minutes - Teenage drunk driving prevention program

Kaiser Permanente is proud to be a sponsor of Every 15 Minutes – a two-day program that challenges high school juniors and seniors to think about drinking, driving, personal safety, the responsibility of making mature decisions, and the impact their decisions have on family, friends, and many others. The program brings together a broad coalition of interested local agencies with the goal of reducing alcohol-related incidents among youth. The partnering of the California Highway Patrol, local law enforcement, local hospitals, emergency medical responders, schools, businesses, and service clubs validates the importance of working together to ensure a healthy community. Kaiser Permanente is pleased to help bring Every 15 Minutes to the South Sacramento and Elk Grove areas. In 2007 we participated in the program at John F. Kennedy, Sacramento New Technology, and West Campus high school, and this year we are supporting the program at Galt High School. For more information, go to www.every15minutes.com.
